Alkanes react with bromine in the presence of UV Light
Explain why this condition is necessary UV provides the energy needed to break the Covalent bonds 
What is this type of reaction called Substitution 
State and explain the observations It will go from brown to colorless 
Draw the displayed formula of the reaction between methane and bromine (upload a photo)

Write out a balanced (with state symbols) the reaction between ethane and chlorine
C2H6 (g) + Cl2 (g) --> C2H5cl (g) + HCl (g)
State and explain the observations in this chemical reaction
