The reaction of an alkene X with bromine produce a compound Y , which has 22.22 % C, 3.71 % H and 74.07 % Br. The ozonolysis of alkene X gives only one product. The alkene X is : [Given: atomic mass of c=12 ; H=1 ; B r=80]
Options
- Aethylene
- B1 -butene
- C2 -butene
- D3-hexene
Correct answer
C. 2 -butene
Step-by-step solution
From the data given, X will be CH ₃- CH = CH - Ch ₃ which on ozonolysis gives ethanal.
