- Alkanes
- Alkenes
- Halogens react with alkanes in the presence of UV light to make haloalkanes
- methane + bromine --> bromethane + hydrogen bromide
- hydrogen atom is substituted by the halogen in a substitution reaction
- methane + bromine --> bromethane + hydrogen bromide
- Halogen react with alkenes forming haloalkenes
- ethene + bromine --> dibromoethane
- double bond is split and a halogen atom is added to each carbon making it an addition reaction
- Orange bromine water become colourless
- ethene + bromine --> dibromoethane
