Question

The number of isomeric alkenes with molecular formula C6H12 are: (A) 8 (B) 10 (C) 11 (D) 13

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

The number of isomeric alkanes with molecular formula

C_{6} H_{12}

are

13

(1)

C H_{2} = C H - C H_{2} - C H_{2} - C H_{2} - C H_{3}

(2)

(cis and trans) C H_{3} - C H = C H - C H_{2} - C H_{2} - C H_{3}

(3)

(cis and trans) C H_{3} - C H_{2} - C H = C H - C H_{2} - C H_{3}

(4)

C H_{2} = C H - C ∣ C H_{3} H - C H_{2} - C H_{3}

(5)

C H_{2} = C ∣ C H_{3} - C H_{2} - C H_{2} - C H_{3}

(6)

C H_{2} = C H - C H_{2} - C ∣ C H_{3} - C H_{3}

(7)

(cis and trans) C H_{3} - C H = C H - C ∣ C H_{3} H - C H_{3}

(8)

C H_{3} - C ∣ C H_{3} = C H - C H_{2} - C H_{3}

(9)

(cis and trans) C H_{3} - C H = C ∣ C H_{3} - C H_{2} - C H_{3}
