Question 38

Hydrocarbon X is an alkene. One molecule of X contains 24 atoms in total.

a.

Calculate the number of carbon atoms in one molecule of X.

[2]
b.

Give the molecular formulae of X and of the alkane with the same number of carbon atoms as X.

[2]
c.

A student changes the displayed formula of X by replacing the C=C\text{C}=\text{C}C=C bond with a C−C\text{C}-\text{C}C−C bond but makes no other change. The student claims that the result is a correct displayed formula for the alkane.

Evaluate the student's claim.
