Answer to Problem 96P
Condensed structure -
IUPAC name −Decene
Explanation of Solution
In alkenes there is a carbon-carbon double bond and different groups are connected to the two carbons. In most of the alkenes; out of four binding positions of carbon-carbon double bond, two of them are binds with two hydrogen atoms and other two binding positions are binds with two different alkyl groups.In this molecule, carbon atoms are represented in black and hydrogen atoms are represented in white color.Structure of a chemical compound is the arrangement of atoms and bonds in the space.
Condensed structure -
In this molecule, main carbon chain which contains the carbon-carbon double bond is a ten membered chain and there are no substituents in this molecule. According to the numbering of the main chain double bond gets the lowest number and it is number 1.Hence, IUPAC name of the molecule is decene.

Concept Introduction:
Alkenes are hydrocarbon molecules that contain a carbon-carbon double bond inside a molecule.

Answer to Problem 96P
Explanation of Solution
Polymers are high molecular weight macromolecules which formed from covalently bonded monomer molecules. When forming polymers from alkene monomers, the weak bond which is in the carbon-carbon double bond is broken and new strong bond will form to connect the monomer molecules together. Hence; weak bond of the carbon-carbon double bond of
