1. Most margarines have been hydrogenated to maintain a soft, homogeneous mixture. While the product is easy to spread, this has made the product an unhealthy choice. A hydrogenation reaction is used to convert 1. an alkene to an alkane. b. a carboxylic acid to an aldehyde. C. an alkene to a ketone d. an aromatic hydrocarbon to a linear hydrocarbon.

What is the difference in bonding and in the general molecular formula between an alkene and an alkane with the same number of carbon atoms?
1. Dehydration: 2. Oxidation: This is a reaction where an alcohol loses a water molecule to form an alkene. For example, when ethanol is treated with an acidic catalyst, such as sulfuric acid, it undergoes dehydration to form ethene (CH2=CH2) and water. ALCOHOLS In this reaction, an alcohol is converted to either a carbonyl compound or a carboxylic acid. 3. Esterification: Types of Reaction (s) For example, primary alcohols can be oxidized to aldehydes or carboxylic acids, while secondary alcohols can be oxidized to ketones. Tertiary alcohols are usually not affected by oxidations 4. Substitution: The conversion of an alcohol and a carboxylic acid to an ester and water, in the presence of an acid catalyst. The reaction between methanol and acetic acid to form methyl acetate: CH3OH + CH3COOH CH3COOCH3 + H2O Click to add speaker notes ME Substitution reactions in organic chemistry involve the replacement of one atom or group of atoms with another atom or group of atoms in a molecule. 1.…
