EXPERIMENT 1
---------------
Bromine quickly adds to acrylic acid (which has a double bond, in the molecule H2C=CH-C(O)OH)).
Bromine does not react quickly with propanoic acid.


EXPERIMENT 2
---------------
Acrylic acid fairly easily is oxidized in dilute aqueous solution, while propanoic acid is not.
The double bond between two C-atoms makes the molecule more reactive.
