(1) When ethylene undergoes oxidation, it forms acetylene.
(2) When ethylene reacts with ozone, it forms ethylene ozonide which on hydrolysis with water in the presence of Zn form formaldehyde.
(3) When ethylene is passed in cold aqueous solution of potassium permanganate, it forms, ethylene glycol.
(4) When ethylene reacts with hypochlorous acid, it forms ethylene chlorohydrin
(5) When ethylene reacts with water in the presence of dilute acid at 300°C and 65 atmospheric pressure, it forms ethyl alcohol.
(6) When ethylene is mixed with air and passed under pressure over a silver catalyst at 200-420°C, it forms ethylene oxide.
