Explain the given reactions with the examples:
- Hydrogenation reaction
- Oxidation reaction
- Substitution reaction
- Saponification reaction
- Combustion reaction.
1. Hydrogenation reaction:
Addition of dihydrogen with unsaturated hydrocarbon in presence of the catalyst to give saturated hydrocarbon is known as hydrogenation.
2.Oxidation reaction:
Oxidation of ethanol to ethanoic acid in the presence of alkaline potassium permanganate is known as oxidation reaction
3.Substitution reaction:
Replacement of one or more hydrogen atom by another atom or group of atoms is known as substitution reaction…
4.Saponification reaction:
Hydrolysis of esters with alkali are known as saponification.
5.Combustion reaction:
Complete oxidation of hydrocarbons to give carbon dioxide, water and heat and light.
