Answers


Kavungya
When methane is bubbled through bromine water the red brown colour of bromine persists; and when bubbled through acidified potassium manganate (VII) solution; the purple colour of the solution remains;
- Thus it has no effect on either bromine water or acidified potassium permanganate.
Reason: It is a saturated hydrocarbon.
