Answer 2

Answer:

CnH2n

Explanation:

The general formula of a group of compounds hemps us in writing the formula of a compound and also naming the compound.

This is mainly found in organic compounds where we need to give the structural formula and molecular formula of a substance.

The general formula for this group of compound is given as :

CnH2n

We can illustrate this from :

C2H4

In this case :

n = 2

2n = 4

The general formula is thus proved.
