Chapter 20, Problem 30A

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The name of the given alkene has to be described.

Concept Introduction:

Alkenes are acyclic or cyclic unsaturated hydrocarbons containing at least one carbon-carbon double bond (C=C) and the general molecular formula CnH2n (where n = number of carbon atoms). Simplest alkene among all is ethylene C2H4 which contains one carbon-carbon double bond.

Alkenes can also be two types-

  1. Unbranched alkenes
  2. Branched alkenes
