Question

give an example of each of the following



a)straight chain hydrocarbon


b)branched chain hydrocarbons

c)cyclic hydrocarbon

Answer 1

1. Methane CH4
2. Methyle CH 3-
3. Cyclopropane C3H6

Answer 2

$\underline{\red{\bold{ANSWER}}}$ ➡

$\bold{\underline{STRAIGHT-CHAIN-}}$
$\bold{\underline{HYDROCARBON}}$ ➡

Straight-chain hydrocarbons are also known as straight-chain alkanes. In a straight chain hydrocarbon each carbon is bound to its two neighbors and to two hydrogen atoms.

$\bold{\underline{Example \: \:}}$ ➡

(i) Ethane
(ii) Propane
(iii)n-butane
(iv)n-pentane

$\bold{\underline{BRANCHED-CHAIN-}}$
$\bold{\underline{HYDROCARBON}}$ ➡

Branched chain hydrocarbons are also known as Branched-chain alkanes.
Branched chain hydrocarbons are the carbons that contain only C and H (with only C-C single bonds) but are not linear.

$\bold{\underline{Example\: \:}}$ ➡

(i) Methyl
(ii) Ethyl
(iii) Propyl
(iv) Butyl

$\bold{\underline{CYCLIC-HYDROCARBON}}$ ➡

A cyclic hydrocarbon is a hydrocarbon in which the carbon chain joins to itself in a ring.So , Cyclic hydrocarbons are formed when atoms combine to form a ring.

$\bold{\underline{Example\: \:}}$ ➡

(i) Benzene
(ii) Cyclopropane
(iii) Cyclohexane
(iv) Cyclopentan
