Document Summary

A combustion reaction always occurs in the presence of oxygen. Hydrocarbons are an important source of energy. If sufficient oxygen is present, the products are carbon dioxide and water. This reaction only occurs with saturated hydrocarbons. Reaction where a hydrogen atom is replaced by another atom or group of atoms. Tetrachloromethane and other chlorinated organic compounds are toxic. Substitution reactions involving halogens such as chlorine are called halogenation reactions. A carbon compound containing one or more double (or triple) bonds is reacted with another substance to open the double bond and add atoms or groups of atoms. Or oxidation: the addition of oxygen to a molecule or the removal of hydrogen from a molecule. In this reaction carbon is oxidized (c 2- c0) The aldehyde can be oxidized to produce an organic acid. Or: reduction: the removal of oxygen from a molecule or addition of hydrogen into a molecule.
