Answer:

Halogenation.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we must remember that group VIIA elements are known as halogens which include F, Cl, Br, I and At. Now, when an alkane reacts with the diatomic form of one of those halogen a haloganation chemical reaction occurs forming an alkyl halide and a hydrogen halide. For instance, for ethane, if it reacts with iodine, ethyl iodide and hydrogen iodide are yielded based on the given example:

CH_3-CH_3+I_2\rightarrow CH_3-CH_2-I+HI

Best regards

Alkanes are saturated hydrocarbon, that is they contain hydrogen and carbon without a double or triple bond between the carbon atoms, e.g. ethane, propane. Group 7a in the periodic table are called halogens e.g chlorine, bromine. Alkanes react with halogens in a reaction called substitution, where halogens replace hydrogen atoms in alkanes.

Why doesn't glue stick to the inside of the bottle? (Not sure if this is chemistry or not lol)
Leni [432]

Answer:

When white glue is in the bottle, there's not enough air inside the bottle to cause the water to evaporate to make the glue sticky. Basically, the bottle holds the glue from the air and keeps the glue from going everywhere.
