Question

A saturated hydrocarbon has 54 hydrogen atoms in its molecule. The number of carbon atoms in its molecule will
be:​

Answer 1

Answer:

2n + 2= 54

2n = 54-2

2n = 52

n = 52/2

n = 26 answer.

Answer 2

Explanation:

The number of carbon atoms in its molecule will be. Alkanes are saturated hydrocarbons that have the general formula CnH2n+2. According to the question, the number of hydrogen atoms is 50, i.e., 2n+2=50
