Question

Key terms: Reset Compounds that contain a carbon-carbon double bond are known as ____________ . Alkenes are electron rich; therefore, simple alkenes do not react with ____________ or bases, but will react with ____________ or acids. In the IUPAC system, an alkene is identified by the suffix ____________ . Addition reactions in which two parts of a reagent are added to the same side of a double bond are known as ____________ additions. Addition reactions in which two parts of a reagent are added from opposite sides of a double bond are called ____________ additions. Halogenation and halohydrin formation occur with ____________ addition. Hydroboration occurs with ____________ addition.

Answer 1

Answer: Compounds that contain a carbon-carbon double bond are known as _____alkenes_______ . Alkenes are electron rich; therefore, simple alkenes do not react with _____nuceophiles_______ or bases, but will react with _____electrophiles_______ or acids. In the IUPAC system, an alkene is identified by the suffix _____-ene_______ . Addition reactions in which two parts of a reagent are added to the same side of a double bond are known as _____syn_______ additions. Addition reactions in which two parts of a reagent are added from opposite sides of a double bond are called _____anti_______ additions. Halogenation and halohydrin formation occur with _____anti_______ addition. Hydroboration occurs with _____syn_______ addition.

Explanation:

The right terms have been filled into the statement.

Electrophiles are election rich so they react with nucleophiles. And vice versa.

Addition reactions in which two parts of a reagent are added to the same side of a double bond are known as _syn reaction and that involving opposite is anti reaction.

The Halohydrin formation reaction involves breaking a pi bond and creating a halohydrin in its place. Halo = halogen and Hydrin = OH. This reaction takes place in water and yields an anti-addition reaction which follows Markovnikov's rule.
