Question

Write The Homologous Series Of Alkenes

Answer 1

Answer:

The general formula for the homologous series of alkenes is CnH2n where n is the number of carbon atoms. Because alkenes are hydrocarbons with at least one carbon-carbon double bond the alkene homologous series starts at ethene C2H4.

Answer 2

The homologous series of Alkenes are:

• The general formula of Alkenes is CₙH₂ₙ, where n is the number of carbon atoms. Here to represent the homologous series of Alkenes, we have displayed the homologous series of Alkenes up to the carbon number five that means up to n=5 but we can represent the homologous series of Alkenes for 'n' number of carbon atoms.
• For n=2, then the general formula is C₂H₂ₓ₂=C₂H₄ and it is called ethene.

• For n=3, then the general formula is C₃H₂ₓ₃=C₃H₆ and it is called propene.

• For n=4, then the general formula is C₄H₂ₓ₄=C₄H₈ and it is called butene.

• For n=5, then the general formula is C₅H₂ₓ5=C₅H₁₀ and it is called pentene.
