(a) Ethene into 1, 2 -dibromoethane: Ethene reacts with bromine at room temperature to form saturated ethylene chloride.
CH2 = CH2 + Br2 →CH2(Br) − CH2(Br)
1,2-dibromo ethane
(b) Ethene into ethyl bromide: When ethene is treated with HBr bromoethane is formed.
CH2 = CH2 + HBr →CH3 − CH2Br
Ethyl bromide
