Question

Give an example (condensed and expanded structures, and line-
angle formulas) of each of the following classes of compounds with at least 6 carbon
atoms. Name each compound.

A. Ketone

Expert Solution
Step 1

The condensed structural formula is a shorthand representation of an organic molecule. In the condensed structural formula, we do not indicate the carbon-hydrogen and carbon-carbon single bonds.

In the line angle or skeletal formula, each covalent bond between carbon-carbon or carbon-heteroatom is represented by a line. A single covalent bond is represented by a single line and a double bond is represented by a pair of parallel lines. In this formula, we do not write the carbon-hydrogen single bonds.
