    Reacting 1-chloro-2-ethylcyclohexene with hydrogen gas using a platinum catalyst would give a product of 1-chloro-2-ethylcyclohexane.

    Hydrogen gas is a reducing agent, which in this reaction, simply mean that the alkene double bond in the cyclohexene will disappear because one of the two bonds forming the double bond (in the alkene) will be connected to a hydrogen atom. The platinum catalyst is necessary to allow the reaction to proceed at a much lower (activation) energy than would have been required.
