Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -This allows us to distinguish alkenes from alkanes using a simple chemical test. Bromine water is an orange solution of bromine. It becomes colourless when it is shaken with an alkene. Alkenes can decolourise bromine water, but alkanes cannot.
Detailed explanation-2: -When bromine water is shaken with a liquid organic compound, it is rapidly decolourized. What can be determined from this test? The compound is an alcohol.
