The molecular formula of methane is CH4.
Methene and methyne does not exist.
- The number of carbon atoms in the parent chain is placed in the “alk” part.
- The “ane”, “ene” and “yne” denotes single, double and triple bonds respectively.
- Methane, CH4 ,is the primary member of the alkane family.
- ”Meth” stands for one carbon atom, the carbon atom is singly bonded to four other hydrogen atoms and thus the suffix “ane”.
- Now, when we break the words “methene” and “methyne”. “Meth” stands for one carbon atom and suffixes “ene” and “yne” refer to the presence of double and triple bonds between carbon atoms, respectively.
- As we know that an organic compound must contain at least two carbon atoms to form double and triple bonds.
- Hence, there is only one carbon atom and thus we can conclude that methene and methyne does not exist.
