Alkynes: Molecular and Structural Formulas
The alkynes comprise a series of carbon- and hydrogen-based compounds that contain at
least one triple bond. This group of compounds is a homologous series with the general
molecular formula of Cn H2 n--2 , where n equals any integer greater than one.
The simplest alkyne, ethyne (also known as acetylene), has two carbon atoms and the
molecular formula of C2H2. The structural formula for ethyne is H-C=C-H
