Question

4) Consider molecules with the formula C10H16. Which of the following structural features are not possible within this set of molecules? A) 2 triple bonds B) 1 ring and 1 triple bond C) 2 rings and 1 double bond D) 2 double bonds and 1 ring E) 3 double bonds 5) How many elements of unsaturation do molecules with a molecular formula of CgH4N2 have? A) 2 B) 4 C) 6 D) 8 E) 10 6) A newly isolated natural product was found to have the molecular formula C15H2802. By hydrogenating a sample of the compound, it was determined to possess one p bond. How m rings are present in the compound? A) 0 B) 1 C) 2

Explanation / Answer

4)

the formula of alkane is CnH2n+2

So, with 10 carbon, alkane will be C10H22

the given compound is C10H16

This is 6 hydrogen less or degree of unsaturation is 3

2 triple bond is not possible because this is like have degree of unsaturation=4 but compound has only 3 degree of unsaturation

Hence the answer is A
