Question

You are given the following molecular formulae of some hydrocarbons:
C5H8; C7H14; C6H6; C5H10; C7H12; C6H12

Which three formulae represent open chain unsaturated hydrocarbons having double bonds?

Advertisements

Solution

C7H14, C5H10 ,C6H12 are the molecular formulae for the open chain unsaturated hydrocarbons having double bonds, as they correspond to the general formula of alkenes, i.e. CnH2n,​ where n is the number of carbon atoms in its one molecule.
