Answer: -
Zero
Explanation: -
Double bond equivalent or level of unsaturation is the number of unsaturation present in a organic molecule. The term unsaturation may refer to a double bond or a ring system.
The double bond equivalent for an organic compound can be found out by the help of the formula
DBE = C+1 -0.5 H - 0.5 X + 0.5 N
The chemical formula of the compound B = C₇H₁₆O
So there are 7 carbons, 16 hydrogens and 1 oxygen. There is no halogen or nitrogen.
Plugging into the formula,
DBE = 7 + 1 - 0.5 x 16
= 0
Thus there is no unsaturation or double bond present in the compound B with the molecular formula C₇H₁₆O
