Sabatier Senderens reaction is an example of:
Correct answer: B. Exothermic reaction
- A. Non thermic reaction
- B. Exothermic reaction
- C. Endothermic reaction
- D. None
Explanation
The Sabatier-Senderens reaction is the catalytic hydrogenation of unsaturated hydrocarbons. This process involves the breaking of a relatively weak pi bond and the formation of two strong sigma bonds, which releases a significant amount of energy, making it an exothermic reaction.

About Chemistry of Hydrocarbons
Hydrocarbons are studied through the structures and reactions of alkanes, alkenes, alkynes and aromatic compounds. Coverage includes free radical substitution in alkanes, electrophilic addition to carbon-carbon multiple bonds, benzene substitution, aromatic stability and the difference between addition reactions of alkenes and substitution reactions of benzene.
