Question

Which of these is the homologue of hexane?
C₄H₈
C₄H₆
C₅H₁₂
C₅H₁₀​

Answer 1

Answer:

your option is (a) C4H8

Explanation:

The molecular formula of ethane is C2H6 To get its fourth homologue, we have to add 4× CH2 = C4H8 to it.

C2H6 + C4H8 = C6H14

C6H14 is the molecular formula of hexane.
