n-Butane

106-97-8

Diethyl

Methylethylmethane

Answer 2

Given:

Two compounds propane and butane.

To Find:

Number of bonds in both Propane and butane.

Solution:

Propane is alkane with 3 carbons.

Butane is alkane with 4 carbons .

Propane:

$CH_{3}-CH_{2}-CH_{3}$  is structural formula of propane .

From here, we can count that no. of bonds of Propane are 10.

Butane:

$CH_{3}-CH_{2}-CH_{2}-CH_{3}$ is structural formula of propane .

From here, we can count that no. of bonds of Butane are 13.

Number of bonds present in Propane and Butane are 10,13 respectively.

Hence, Option(B) is correct.
