give the molecular formula and electron structure of ethyne and ethene
Answers
Answer: The name Ethylene is used because it is like an ethyl group (CH2CH3) but there is a double bond between the two carbon atoms in it. Ethene has the formula C2H4 and is the simplest alkene because it has the fewest carbons (two) necessary for a carbon-carbon double bond.
Answer:
GIVE THE MOLECULAR FORMULA-
A molecular formula consists of the chemical symbols for the constituent elements followed by numeric subscripts describing the number of atoms of each element present in the molecule. The empirical formula represents the simplest whole-integer ratio of atoms in a compound
ELECTRON STRUCTURE OF ETHYNE AND ETHENE-
Ethyne has a triple bond between the two carbon atoms. ... If you have read the ethene page, you will expect that ethyne is going to be more complicated than this simple structure suggests. An orbital view of the bonding in ethyne. Ethyne is built from hydrogen atoms (1s1) and carbon atoms (1s22s22px12py1).
