MCQ
The general formula of alkenes is:
✓
$C _n H _{2 n}$
B
$C _n H _{2 n-2}$
C
$C _n H _{2 n+2}$
D
$C _n H _{2 n+1}$
✓
Answer
Correct option: A.
$C _n H _{2 n}$
(a) $CnH _{2 n}$ Explanation : The alkenes are the hydrocarbons in which carbon atom is bonded with a double bond with other carbon atom. The general formula of alkenes are $C _n H _{2 n}$. For example: $C _2 H _4, C _3 H _6, C _4 H _8$, etc. In $C _2 H _4$, number of carbon atoms: 2, number of hydrogen atoms: $2(2)=4$
