The exercises refer to hydrocarbons. Depending on the type of bond, it will be the termination of the name of the molecule.

For a single bond: End with the suffix -ane

For double bond: Ends in -ene

For triple bond: Ends in -yne

Let's look at each particular case

a) Heptene

Hept- means 7 carbons, so we have a compound with 7 carbons and one double bond. The formula will be:


CH_2=CH-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CH_3

c)Hexane

6 carbons with a simple bond


CH_3-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CH_3

d)Pentane

5 carbons with a simple bond


CH_3-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CH_3

e)Propyne

3 carbons with a triple bond


CH\equiv C-CH_3
