IGNITION TEST
A little quantity of sample is placed on a spatula and placed in the flame of a Bunsen burner, slowly
bringing the substance closer to the flame until it ignites. To analyze the results, it is best to first do the
test with hexane, benzene, and alcohol, examining the properties of each. The regions of the flame must
be considered.
ALKENE FORMATION
Alkenes are often synthesized by elimination processes in which two atoms on neighboring carbon
atoms are eliminated, resulting in the formation of a double bond. As the bromine interacts with the
carbon-carbon double bond, an alkene turns dark bromine water colorless. This reaction will occur for
unsaturated compounds with carbon-carbon double bonds.
The underlying idea behind Baeyer's unsaturation test is that hydrocarbons are reduced to substituent
dihydroxy compounds termed glycols when they react with cold water or slightly alkaline potassium
permanganate. Two –OH groups are joined to two neighboring carbons in glycols. When alkaline
potassium permanganate is given to an unsaturated hydrocarbon in this test, the pink color of
potassium permanganate vanishes.
Bromine will react with the carbon-carbon double bond of alkenes to form dibromoalkane and with
alkynes to make tetrabromoalkanes in this test. Once this process occurred, molecule bromine is
destroyed, and the distinctive dark red-brown color vanishes if bromine is not provided in excess. The
quick elimination of the bromine color indicates that the solution is unsaturated.
ACETYLENE FORMATION
Acetylene can be made in one of three ways: by reacting water with calcium carbide, bypassing a
hydrocarbon using an electric arc, or by partially burning methane with air or oxygen. Acetylene
interacts with oxygen in this test to produce carbon dioxide and water.

ACTIVITY D Directions: Identify the different solutions if it is Saturated or Unsaturated
N-HEXANE 🗸
We can't add any more
atoms to N-hexane
without disrupting bonds
from existing atoms,
hence it's also termed
saturated.
ACETYLENE 🗸
Acetylene is a non-
saturated gas since there
are two carbon atoms. A
triple bond is formed
when two atoms are
joined together.
