Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to write the equation of ethene with bromine

This is an addition reaction that gives an organic molecule of a lesser degree of saturation compared to the starting molecule

The lesser degree of saturation we have formed is dibromoethane

We have this reaction as follows:


H_2C=CH_2+Cl_2\text{ }\rightarrow ClH_2C-CH_2\text{Cl}
