2. What is the product of a halogenalkane reacting with KOH under ethanolic conditions?

  • An alcohol with a halogen group (addition)
  • An alkene, water and KX (elimination)
  • An alcohol and KX (subsitution)
  • A salt and water

3. What is the catalyst for the hydration of ethene into ethanol?

  • Iron
  • Phosphoric acid
  • Nickel
  • Potassium (VIII) manganate

4. Why is 2-Bromopropane the major product of the reaction of propene and HBr?

  • Because the intermediary carbocation is more stable (the charge is spread over more atoms)
  • There is less steric hinderance for the reaction compared to 1-Bromopropane
  • The H will attack where there are fewer H's already
  • It is not, the products are equally likely as propene is symmetrical

5. Which of these halogenalkanes would form a precipitate first when aqeous silver nitrate is added?

  • 2-iodo-2-methylpropane
  • 2-iodo-3,3-dimethylheptane
  • 1-chlorobutane
  • 2-fluroethane
