Describe the properties of alkenes in terms of addition reactions with: (a) bromine or aqueous bromine (b) hydrogen in the presence of a nickel catalyst (c) steam in the presence of an acid catalyst and draw the structural or displayed formulae of the products

Write and interpret general formulae of compounds in the same homologous series, limited to: (a) alkanes, (C_nH_{2n+2}) (b) alkenes, (C_nH_{2n}) (c) alcohols, (C_nH_{2n+1}OH) (d) carboxylic acids, (C_nH_{2n+1}COOH)
