(a)
Interpretation:
The given molecular formula belongs to
Concept Introduction:
Hydrocarbons are the organic compounds that contain only hydrogen and carbon atoms. Hydrocarbon derivatives are the one in which the compounds contain hydrogen and carbon atoms along with one or more additional elements. The additional elements that can be present in hydrocarbon derivatives are oxygen, nitrogen, sulphur, chlorine, bromine etc.
Hydrocarbons are further classified into two categories. They are saturated hydrocarbons and
Saturated hydrocarbons are
Alkane has general molecular formula as
(a)
Answer to Problem 13.11EP
Given molecular formula belongs to an alkene with one double bond.
Explanation of Solution
Given molecular formula is
The given molecular formula is found to be that for an alkene containing one double bond.
(b)
Interpretation:
The given molecular formula belongs to alkene with one double bond, or a diene, or a triene has to be indicated.

Hydrocarbon derivatives are the one in which the compounds contain hydrogen and carbon atoms along with one or more additional elements. The additional elements that can be present in hydrocarbon derivatives are oxygen, nitrogen, sulphur, chlorine, bromine etc.
Hydrocarbons are further classified into two categories. They are saturated hydrocarbons and unsaturated hydrocarbons. The hydrocarbons that contain single bonds between carbon atoms in the entire molecule is known as saturated hydrocarbon. The hydrocarbons that contain atleast one double or triple bond between two carbon atoms in the entire molecule is known as unsaturated hydrocarbon.
Saturated hydrocarbons are alkanes. Unsaturated hydrocarbons are alkene, alkyne and aromatic hydrocarbons.
