Exercise 20.1 Give the molecular formulas for the alkanes with 10 and 15 carbon atoms.

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The molecular formulas of alkanes with 10 and15 carbons should be determined.

Concept Introduction:

Compounds consist of carbon and hydrogen is known as hydrocarbons. Hydrocarbons are classified as saturated hydrocarbon and unsaturated hydrocarbon. Saturated hydrocarbons are those hydrocarbons in which carbon-carbon single bond is present as carbon is linked with four atoms. Unsaturated hydrocarbons are those hydrocarbons in which carbon-carbon multiple bonds are present that is double and triple bond.

Saturated hydrocarbon is known as alkane having general molecular formula CnH2n+2.

Explanation

Saturated hydrocarbon in which carbon-carbon single bond is present is known as alkane.

The general molecular formula of alkane is CnH2n+2 where n represents the number of carbon atoms.

In case of 10 carbon atoms, the molecular formula of alkane is C10H(2×10)+2 = C10H22
