Question

The general formula of alkyne is:

• A. C\(_n\)H\(_{2n+2}\)
• B. C\(_n\)H\(_{2n}\)
• C. C\(_n\)H\(_{2n-2}\)
• D. C\(_n\)H\(_{2n-1}\)

Hint:

Alkynes contain at least one triple bond and have the general formula C\(_n\)H\(_{2n-2}\).

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

The general formula for alkynes, which have a triple bond, is C\(_n\)H\(_{2n-2}\).
