(a)
Interpretation:
Among the given formulas, the one which cannot be the correct formula for the organic compounds is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
Degree of unsaturation or unsaturation number is used to determine the total number of rings and pi bonds present in compound by just looking at the molecular formula. It does not specify the total number of rings and total number of pi bonds individually.
(b)
Interpretation:
The constitutional isomers of the compounds with the formula
Concept introduction:
Degree of unsaturation or unsaturation number is used to determine the total number of rings and pi bonds present in compound by just looking at the molecular formula. It does not specify the total number of rings and total number of pi bonds individually.
