Question 8 1 pts A student wanted to perform a hydrogenation reaction and looks around the stock room for an alkyne. The student saw a bottle with the following label: "Alk-_____ compound" and decided to perform the bromine test to test for unsaturation. After performing the experiment and waiting for over 10 minutes, the student saw that the solution stayed yellow brown/orange. Can the student use this substance to successfully run a hydrogenation reaction? Yes, because based on the results of the bromine test the substance is an alkane and it can be used in a hydrogenation reaction.
