what kind of organic reaction is this?
butane + propane = 2,3- dimethylpentane = hydrogen im thinking its alkylation.......but im not sure alkylation reactions produce water becuase its not cataltyic reforming or addition or substtution reactiions, or elimination.....
**butane + propane -> 2,3- dimethylpentane = hydrogen
@Hoslos
draw it out
Did not you micoy your reaction? Because alkanes are saturated compounds, which undergo substitution and halogenation reactions. As well as combustion. Not reactions between them.
sorry messed up on eqn again**butane+propane = 2,3-dimethylpentane + hydrogen and yes i did draw it out, but i still dont know and not sure what micoy mean?
I meant miscopy.
Hmmm.. One thing I am not satisfied it is that it forms a longer chain. I will for catalytic cracking or pyrolisis, that consists in the reaction of two llong-chand hydrocarbos reacting to form a short-chained one and hydrogen.
