Question

Bond
line formula
of pentane.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Pentane is an organic compound which is a clear colourless liquid. The odour of pentane is similar to petroleum. It is less dense than the water and is insoluble in water. It is also known as quintane and n-pentane. The rotatable bond count of pentane is 2.

Following is the table of formulas of pentane:

Answer 2

Answer:

Pentane is an organic compound in the alkane functional group with 5 carbon atoms bound to each other with single bonds. The molecular formula for pentane is C5H12. Alkanes consist of only carbon and hydrogen atoms with single bonds linking them together

Bond line drawings are a simple way of drawing/writing the organic molecular structure.

At the end of each line is a carbon. And each carbon has 2-3 bonds with hydrogens depending on where each carbon is.

The two carbons at the two ends of the structure are bonded to 3 hydrogens each, whereas the middle three carbons are bonded to 2 carbons each.

This makes it easier to imagine. 3 hydrogens at the end carbons and 2 hydrogens attached to middle carbons.

In bond line drawing of hydrocarbons, you only draw the carbons and not the hydrogens.

For example here is heptane:

c-c-c-c-c-c-c
