Question

what is homologous series ?what are characteristics of a homologous series​

Answer 1

Answer:

A homologous series is a family of hydrocarbons with similar chemical properties who share the same general formula. We will look at three hydrocarbon series: alkanes, alkenes and the cycloalkanes. Hydrocarbons are compounds that contain only hydrogen and carbon.

Characteristics: The members of the homologous series have same functional group. Members have the same general formula. Members have the almost same chemical properties due to same functional group. Members have common general method of preparation.

In organic chemistry, a homologous series is a series of compounds with the same functional group and similar chemical properties in which the members of the series differ by the number of repeating units they contain. ... They share common characteristics: They all contain the same functional group
