1. <span>Pentyne is a hydrocarbon. It is classified as an
alkyne. The general formula for the alkyne is CnH2n-2. The functional group of
pentyne is
a triple bond which is made from one
</span>σ bond and two π bonds<span>. </span>Since, it has a triple bond, pentyne is
an unsaturated
hydrocarbon. The formula of pentyne is C5H8 and it only consists of H
and C atoms.
2. Alkenes are also hydrocarbons. But they have at least one
double bond. The general formula for the alkenes is CnH2n. Since, it has double bond, alkenes are
unsaturated hydrocarbons. The hybridization of C which has double bond is sp². Due to the unsaturation it is a
reactive hydrocarbon but
less stable than alkanes.
Hence, the false statement is "<span>
They are more stable than alkanes."
</span>
3. <span>Butene would have 4 carbon atoms and a </span>
double bond.
Butene is an alkene. Since the general formula of alkene is CnH2n, formula for
the butene is C4H4 because n = 4. It is an unsaturated hydrocarbon due to the
presence of the double bond. The double bond is made from one σ bond and one π bond.
<span>4. Alkenes generally undergo addition reactions.</span>
<span>
</span>
Alkenes are unsaturated hydrocarbons which have double bonds. The hybridization of the carbon atom which has the double bond is sp². Hence, that double bond has one σ bond and one π bond. In addition reactions, the π bond breaks down and another atom is connected to the carbon atom by forming a σ bond. By undergoing addition reaction, the hybridization of c atom which has double bond changes from sp² to sp³.
5. If the carbon atom of hydrocarbon is bonded to less than 4 other atoms, the hydrocarbon is considered unsaturated.
Maximum number of bonds that a carbon atom can form is 4. Those bonds can be formed by forming single bonds with four another atoms of by forming one double bond and two single bond with three atoms or by forming one single bond and one triple bond with to another atoms. The single bonds are saturated and double bonds and triple bonds are considered as unsaturated.
6. <span>Unsaturated hydrocarbons </span>have double bond and triple bonds<span> as their functional groups but
saturated hydrocarbons have only single bonds. Due to the unsaturation, </span>they will
react readily with other elements and compounds. Although the hydrocarbons are unsaturated, they also have
isomers. But the stability of the unsaturated hydrocarbons is less than saturated
ones.
7. Alkenes have the general formula as CnH2n. Hence C5H10 is an alkene which has 5 carbon atoms. Since, it is an alkene, that hydrocarbon has a double C-C bond. Since it is an unsaturated one, it is highly reactive than alkanes and unstable. It is less inert than alkanes.
8. The general formula of alkenes is CnH2n.
Alkanes have the general formula as CnH2n+2 and for the alkynes, it is CnH2n-2. The general formula of alkenes and alkynes are given when there is only one double bond or triple bond. Due to the presence of double bonds and triple bonds, alkenes and alkynes are less stable and unsaturated.
9. Benzene is a cyclic closed ring and aromatic alkene. The general formula is CnH2n. Benzene has three double bonds. Hence, three C-C have double bonds which share 2 pairs of electrons. Since, those C-C bonds are double bonds, they have π bonds. The all of C atoms in benzene are sp² hybridized. Hence, all C atoms are actually identical.
10.
1. H-C≡C-H is a alkyne which has two carbon atoms. Hence, the name of this is ethyne.
2. Benzene is a cyclic compound which has both saturated and unsaturated characteristics.
3. The general formula of the alkenes is CnH2n.
4. addition is the typical reaction type for the unsaturated hydrocarbons.
5. The general formula of the alkynes is CnH2n-2.
6. series name of hydrocarbons with triple bond is alkyne.
7. The general formula of the alkenes is CnH2n+2.
