Explanation for the design question the general form molecular formula for alkan is alkan general formula is alkan organic compound a hydrocarbon general formula is cn h2n plus 2 what is the general molecular formula for part a is cyceloalcan cycloalkane so here we now date here cn h2 n plus 2 so so here this end indicates number of carbon atoms.
00:46
Carbon atoms and here this indicates also number of carbon atoms.
00:53
And here we will find alkan.
00:55
For example, we have alkan is.
00:57
Alcan is here propane.
01:01
Propane c .h3, ch2, and ch3.
01:08
This is propane.
01:09
So we can find.
01:12
The molecular formula that for this propane is here we will put number of carbon atoms c3 and h 2n3 plus 2 so it becomes here c3 and 2 3 and 2 3 3 3 3 6 plus 2 8 so molecular formula for propane will be c3 h8 so we'll count here 3 hydrogen 3 hydrogen 6 7 8 number of carbon atoms here, 3.
01:43
C3h8 is the molecular formula for propane, that is alkyan.
01:48
And next, here we will come to the question here.
01:52
That is a cycloalkane.
01:54
For example, we have cycloalkane is butin.
01:59
Cycala butin.
02:01
So this is cyclobutin.
02:03
So we will find here a cyclobutin the formula for this given compound, cyclobutin...
