  • C2H4 has an additional reaction with chlorine.
  • C2H4 is an unsaturated hydrocarbon because it has double bonds just like alkenes. The alkenes and alkynes undergo addition reactions because they are unsaturated compounds. When C2H4 combines with chlorine, the double bond breaks and the chlorine attaches itself to the carbon atom. 
  • A saturated hydrocarbon, namely dichloroethane, is formed.
    C2H4 + Cl2C2H4 Cl2
