Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The compounds $cis-2-\text{hexene}$ and $1-\text{hexyne}$ are to be differentiated.

Concept introduction:

The compounds that contain carbon and hydrogen atoms are known as hydrocarbon compounds. These compounds originate from plants and animals. These are also known as organic compounds. There are two classes of hydrocarbon compounds, saturated and unsaturated hydrocarbons. Unsaturated hydrocarbon compounds are of two types, alkenes and alkynes. The alkene contains a double bond between two carbon atoms. The alkynes contain a triple bond between two carbon atoms and follow general formula ${\text{C}}_n{\text{H}}_{\text{2}n-\text{2}}$. The name of the alkyne compounds ends with suffix $-yne$.

(b)

Interpretation:

The compounds $1-\text{hexyne}$ and $2-\text{hexyne}$ are to be differentiated.

Concept introduction:

The compounds that contain carbon and hydrogen atoms are known as hydrocarbon compounds. These compounds originate from plants and animals. These are also known as organic compounds. There are two classes of hydrocarbon compounds, saturated and unsaturated hydrocarbons. Unsaturated hydrocarbon compounds are of two types, alkenes and alkynes. The alkene contains a double bond between two carbon atoms. The alkynes contain a triple bond between two carbon atoms and follow general formula ${\text{C}}_n{\text{H}}_{\text{2}n-\text{2}}$. The name of the alkyne compounds ends with suffix $-yne$.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

The compounds $4,4-\text{dimethyl}-2-\text{hexyne}$ and $3,3-\text{dimethylhexane}$ are to be differentiated.

Concept introduction:

The compounds that contain carbon and hydrogen atoms are known as hydrocarbon compounds. These compounds originate from plants and animals. These are also known as organic compounds. There are two classes of hydrocarbon compounds, saturated and unsaturated hydrocarbons. Unsaturated hydrocarbon compounds are of two types, alkenes and alkynes. The alkene contains a double bond between two carbon atoms. The alkynes contain a triple bond between two carbon atoms and follow general formula ${\text{C}}_n{\text{H}}_{\text{2}n-\text{2}}$. The name of the alkyne compounds ends with suffix $-yne$.

Interpretation Introduction

(d)

Interpretation:

The compounds propyne and $1-\text{decyne}$ are to be differentiated.

Concept introduction:

The alkynes contains a triple bond between two carbon atoms and follow general formula ${\text{C}}_n{\text{H}}_{\text{2}n-\text{2}}$. For example $\text{HC}\equiv \text{CH}$. It is the smallest member of the alkynes class of compounds. The name of the alkyne compounds ends with suffix $-yne$.
