(b)
Interpretation:
The general balanced reaction for the complete combustion of a cycloalkane containing one ring (with formula
Concept introduction:
The combustion is the process of heating the compounds in the presence of oxygen. The combustion of alkanes yields carbon dioxide and water. In the process of combustion of alkanes a high amount of heat is evolved. These products are given by all kind of alkanes generally.

- How does the structure of a cycloalkane differ from that of a straight-chain or branched-chain alkane?arrow_forward. With very reactive agents, such as the halogen elements, alkanes undergo reactions, whereby a new atom rep laces one or more hydrogen atoms of the alkane.arrow_forward. Alkenes and alkynes are characterized by their ability to undergo rapid, complete reactions, by which other atoms attach themselves to the carbon atoms of the double or triple bond.arrow_forward
- Cyclopropane (C3H6, a three-membered ring) is more reactive than most other cycloalkanes.(a) Draw a Lewis structure for cyclopropane.(b) Compare the bond angles of the carbon atoms in cyclopropane with those in an acyclic (noncyclic) alkane.(c) Suggest why cyclopropane is so reactive.arrow_forward1. (a) Draw the structures of the eight isomeric pentyl alcohols, C3H11OH. (b) Name each by the IUPAC system and by the carbinol system. (c) Label each as primary, secondary, or tertiary, (d) Which one is isopentyl alcohol? tert-Pentyl alcohol? (e) Give the structure of a primary, a secondary, and a tertiary alcohol of the formula C,H13OH.arrow_forward
