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: $2(2)=4$
