Activity 2
What to do: Answer as directed.
1. Write the balanced chemical equation for the combustion reaction of butane, C4H10.
2C4H10 + 13O2 → 8CO2 + 10H2O
2. What is the main product in the addition of HBr to 3-methyl-1-pentene? Write the chemical
equation using structural formulas of the reactants and the product.
2-bromo-3-methyl-pentane
3. What is the product of the addition of two molar equivalents of HCl to 3-methyl-1-pentyne?
Write the chemical equation using structural formulas of the reactants and the product.
2,2-dichloro-3-methylpentane
4. What is the product of the hydrogenation of 2,3-dimethyl-1-heptyne with (a) one molar
equivalent of hydrogen, and (b) two molar equivalents of hydrogen? Write the chemical
equation using structural formulas of the reactants and the product.

Reflection
1. Why do we need to study organic chemistry? Why do we need to study reactions of organic
compounds?
First of all, Organic chemistry is important because it deals with all aspects of life and the
chemical processes that underlie it. In organic synthesis, organic reactions are put to use
in the creation of new organic compounds. Biochemical reactions are the source of many
man-made compounds, from pharmaceuticals to plastics to food additives to textiles.
2. Almost every day in human activity involves the combustion of fuels which is one of the
many causes of anthropogenic (man-made) emissions of pollutants in our environment. As a
student of chemistry, what will you do to mitigate the effects of global warming and climate change
due to the increasing carbon footprint in the atmosphere?
I would also recommend to everybody to recycle, reduce, and even plant trees but in terms
of mitigation strategies, I would recommend retrofitting existing buildings to make them
more energy efficient; using renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, and small hydro;
assisting cities in developing bus rapid transit, electric vehicles, and biofuels; promoting
more sustainable land and forest uses; and assisting cities in developing more sustainable
modes of transportation such as bus rapid transit, electric vehicles, and biofuels.
