Q1. From red-brown to colourless (not clear). Ethene and bromine liquid at room temperature.
Q2. Ethene is unsaturated because it has a double bond between carbon atoms. H H C C H H Q3. The δ+ end of the Br2 acts as an electrophile Brδ+ Brδ-
Q5. The carbon only has a single + charge because only one of the shared pair of electrons belonged to this carbon. H H H H C C C C + H H H H Brδ+ Br δ+ Brδ- Brδ- __ Q4. There is a single – charge because one of the shared pair of electrons already belonged to this bromine.
Q6. A carbocation. H H H H C H H C C H H C + + Br Brδ+ Brδ- __ Q7. Curly arrows represent movement of a pair of electrons. Brδ- __
H H Q8. The product is saturated. All the bonds between carbon atoms are saturated. C H H C Br Br Q9. 1,2-dibromoethane Q10. Electrophilic addition.
