Concept explainers

Alkynes

Alkynes are organic compounds that contain at least one triple bond between carbon-carbon atoms. They are a series of unsaturated compounds with a general molecular formula, CnH2n-2.

Question

Paraffi n wax is a mixture of straight- and branched-chain
alkanes having 26–30 carbons. How many hydrogens does
each of these alkanes contain?

Definition Definition Simplest organic compounds that contain only single bonds between carbon – carbon atoms and carbon – hydrogen bonds. This means they are a series of saturated compounds with a general molecular formula, C n H 2n+2 .
