(a) P is ethane.
Q is ethene.
(b) P contains only carbon–carbon and carbon–hydrogen single bonds, but Q contains a carbon–carbon
double bond.
1. Add aqueous bromine to each of the compounds. Aqueous bromine remains unchanged when
added to saturated fats, but is decolourised when added to polyunsaturated fats.
(a) False. Alkanes are called saturated hydrocarbons because they contain only carbon–carbon single
covalent bonds.
(b) False. Butane and butene are not isomers. They have different chemical formulae.
(c) True
(d) False. The reaction of alkanes with bromine is a substitution reaction.
(e) False. The first member of the alkene homologous series is ethene.
(f) True
(g) False. The catalytic cracking of long-chain alkanes produces short-chain alkenes and short-chain
alkanes or hydrogen.
(h) False. Alkenes (but not alkanes) react rapidly with bromine water at room temperature.
(i) False. Polyunsaturated fats contain two or more carbon–carbon double bonds.
(j) True
