Answer 1

Answer:

CnH2n+1 is the general formula

Answer 2

The general formula of Alkanal is $C_nH_{2n}O$

Explanation:

• Alkanals are aldehydes, and are complexes comprising ONLY carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms. Aldehydes, which comprise the alkanals, cover the C=O.  
• Functional group, recognized as the carbonyl functional group, situated on a terminal (end) carbon atom of the chain of carbon atoms.
• Alkanals are organic molecules comprising only carbon (C), hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O) atoms.  
• Alkanals belong to the group of organic complexes known as aldehydes.  
• Aldehydes comprise a C=O, carbonyl(1), functional group.  
• A straight-chain alkanal contains of a chain of 1 or more carbon atoms combined to each other by single covalent bonds, with a C=O functional group involved to the terminal (end) carbon atom in the chain of carbon atoms.
