We have to find formulas of the compunds

#a

Just observe the bonds and write


\\ \sf\longmapsto CH_3-CH_2-CH_3

#b


\\ \sf\longmapsto CH_2=CH-CH_2-CH_3

#c


\\ \sf\longmapsto CH\overline{=}C-CH_2-CH_3

Answer:

a.) CH₃ - CH₂ - CH₃

b.) CH₂ = CH - CH₂ - CH₃

c.) CH ≡ C - CH₂ - CH₃

Step-by-step explanation:

a.)

In this compound there are 3 Carbon atoms and 8 Hydrogen atoms

Here, there is single bond between Carbon atom so it's known as Alkane

The Rational Formula:

CH₃ - CH₂ - CH₃

b.)

In this compound there are 4 Carbon atoms and 8 Hydrogen atoms

Here, there are double bond between Carbon atom so it's known as Alkene

The Rational Formula:

CH₂ = CH - CH₂ - CH₃

c.)

In this compound there are 4 Carbon atoms and 6 Hydrogen atoms

Here, there are triple bond between Carbon atom so it's known as Alkyne

The Rational Formula:

CH ≡ C - CH₂ - CH₃
