Question

is h2c=ch2 a condensed structural formula?​

Answer 1

Answer:

The simplest alkene ethene (H2C=CH2) is planar with H-C-H and H- C-C bond angles that are close to 120°. Figure 8.2 These 120° bond angles and the planar geometry are consistent with sp2 hybridization for each of ethene's C atoms (Chapter 1).

Answer 2

H2C=CH2 is a condensed structural formula. It belongs to ethene.

• Ethene is the simplest of the unsaturated double-bonded hydrocarbons called alkenes. It has a planar structure bond angle along each carbon is 120⁰.
• A condensed structural formula is the way of representing all atoms of an organic compound in a single line.
• The bonds between the atoms are not shown, but multiple bonds can be written to show their position in the molecule.
• Ethene (C2H4) can be represented as H2C=CH2
