Question

A compound 'X' is a gaseous hydrocarbon It decolourises bromine
water It forms monochloro product 'Y' with gaseous HCl the
molecular weight of 'Y' is 64 5 Identify compounds 'X' and 'Y'
Also, write the reactions involved

Neelam Yadav · Accepted Answer

The compound x is CH2=CH2
CH2=CH2 + HCl â†’
C2H5Cl So y = C2H5Cl
which has molecular weight 64 5

A compound 'X' is a gaseous hydrocarbon. It decolourises bromine water. It forms monochloro product 'Y' with gaseous HCl. the molecular weight of 'Y' is 64.5. Identify compounds 'X' and 'Y'. Also, write the reactions involved.
