Question

what is a homogeneous series

Answer 1

Hi mate.

Thanks for asking this question.

Here is your answer,



$homologous \: series$


Homologous series is a series of compounds with similar chemical properties and same functional group differing with the successive member by CH2. 


Alkanes with general formula CnH2n+2, alkenes with general formula CnH2n and alkynes with general formula CnH2n-2 form the most basic homologous series in organic chemistry.




$examples$

 In CH4 and C2H6, the difference is -CH2 unit and the difference between C2H6 and C3H8   is also -CH2 unit. So CH4, C2H6, and C3H8 are homologs.






Thank you.
