(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Structural formula should be determined for the compound that meets the following descriptions,

  • An alkene with five carbons

Concept introduction:

Alkenes are one of the important types of hydrocarbon which have at least one carbon-carbon double bond (C=C ). According to the International Union for Pure and Applied Chemistry the name of an alkane ends with ene. Alkenes have a general formula CnH2n where n is the number of carbon atom.

The Structural formula of a compound shows how the atoms are arranged in a molecule and, in particular, shows which functional groups are present.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Structural formula should be determined for the compound that meets the following descriptions,

  • An alkyne with four carbons

Concept introduction:

Alkynes are one of the important types of hydrocarbon which have at least one carbon-carbon triple bond (CC ). According to the International Union for Pure and Applied Chemistry the name of an alkane ends with yne. Alkenes have a general formula CnH2n2 where n is the number of carbon atom.

The Structural formula of a compound shows how the atoms are arranged in a molecule and, in particular, shows which functional groups are present.

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Structural formula should be determined for the compound that meets the following descriptions,

  • A substituted aromatic compound with eight carbons.

Concept introduction:

An aromatic compound is a hydrocarbon which contains one or more benzene like rings.

The compound possesses planar, cyclic, conjugate and obey the 4n+2 electrons is called as aromatic compound.

The Structural formula of a compound shows how the atoms are arranged in a molecule and, in particular, shows which functional groups are present.
