Bioethanol can be dehydrated to produce ethene, C2H4\text{C}_2\text{H}_4C2H4, which is a key petrochemical feedstock. Which of the following hydrocarbons belongs to the same homologous series as ethene?
C8H18\text{C}_8\text{H}_{18}C8H18
C8H16\text{C}_8\text{H}_{16}C8H16
C8H14\text{C}_8\text{H}_{14}C8H14
C8H20\text{C}_8\text{H}_{20}C8H20
