The molecular formula of a compound in which double bond
is present between C & C :
(a) CₙH₂ₙ + 2 (b) CₙHₙ
(c) CₙH₂ₙ (d) CₙH₂ₙ₋₂
Answers
The molecular formula of a compund in which double bond is present between C & C is CₙH₂ₙ since
1) In CₙH₂ₙ + 2
put n=1
then it will be CH4 which is an alkane
2) In CₙHₙ
put n=1
then it will be CH which not anything.
3) In CₙH₂ₙ
put n=1
then it will be CH2 which is not possible in alkene but at
n=2
it will be C2H4 which is an alkene
4) In CₙH₂ₙ₋₂
put n=2
then it will be C2H2 which is an alkhyne
5) so option (c) is correct.
The compound having double bond is H2 - C = C - H2 which is an alkene.
Option (C) is correct.
Explanation:
In order to know the presence of double bond among the following compounds put the values of n= 1 and n= 2 respectively.
So
(a) n = 2 it will be CH4 which is an alkane i.e methane
(b) n = 2 it will be C2H2 an alkyne
(c) n = 2 it will be C2H4 which is an alkene having double formula.
H2 - C = C - H2
Thus the compound having double bond is H2 - C = C - H2 which is an alkene.
