Answer 1

An organic molecule has 10 carbons and 22 hydrogens. It must be made of all single bonds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Organic compounds are all those chemical compounds whose structure is made up of bonded carbons. In other words, an organic compound is anything that is carbon based where its bonds are covalent, carbon to carbon, or between carbon and hydrogen.

Alkanes are compounds made of carbon and hydrogen that contain only carbon-carbon single bonds. They meet the general formula CₙH₂ₙ₊₂, where n is the number of carbons in the molecule.

In this case, you can see that, being 10 carbons and 22 hydrogens, n equals 10. So, being 2n + 2 and replacing n with 10, you get 2 * 10 + 2 = 22. So you get C₁₀H₂₂.

An organic molecule has 10 carbons and 22 hydrogens. It must be made of all single bonds.

Answer 2

All single bonds.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the number of single, double or triple bonds (unsaturations), for molecules containing only carbon, hydrogen, monovalent halogens, nitroge , as the organic molecule C10H22 has, we use the following formula, also known as the hydrogen deficiency index (HDI):

`HDI=1+C-(H+X-N)/(2)`

Where

C = number of carbon atoms

H = number of hydrogen atoms

X = number of halogen atoms

N = number of nitrogen atoms

2 gives an equivalent result.

`HDI=1+10-(22+0-0)/(2)=11-(22)/(2) =11-11=0`

Since the number of unsaturations is zero, it means that the molecule only has single bonds, it does not have double or triple bonds and it does not have rings.
