Question

There exits single bonds between carbon atoms of alkanes.Do you agree with this statement?give reason

Answer 1

Answer:

Structure of Alkanes

As these bonds are all single bonds, there is free rotation around all connections. Each carbon atom has four bonds (either C-H or C-C bonds), and each hydrogen atom is joined to a carbon atom (H-C bonds). A series of linked carbon atoms is known as the carbon skeleton or carbon backbone.
