About this document
Alkanes: Fuels and Chemical Reactions by Teejay Makazhu is a document available to read on EtoBox.
- The document discusses alkanes and alkenes, which are types of hydrocarbons. It describes how alkanes are separated from crude oil via fractional distillation. [1] - Alkanes undergo combustion reactions with oxygen, cracking to form smaller alkanes and alkenes, and substitution reactions with halogens. Alkenes contain carbon-carbon double bonds and undergo addition reactions across the double bond. [2] - Key reactions of alkenes discussed include hydrogenation to form alkanes, hydrolysis with water to
