| What is meant by homologous series of carbon compounds? Classify the following carbon compounds into two homologous series and name them. |
| \[{{\mathbf{C}}_{\mathbf{3}}}{{\mathbf{H}}_{\mathbf{4}}}\mathbf{, }{{\mathbf{C}}_{\mathbf{3}}}{{\mathbf{H}}_{\mathbf{6}}}\mathbf{, }{{\mathbf{C}}_{\mathbf{4}}}{{\mathbf{H}}_{\mathbf{6}}}\mathbf{, }{{\mathbf{C}}_{\mathbf{4}}}{{\mathbf{H}}_{\mathbf{8}}}\mathbf{, }{{\mathbf{C}}_{\mathbf{5}}}{{\mathbf{H}}_{\mathbf{8}}}\mathbf{, }{{\mathbf{C}}_{\mathbf{5}}}{{\mathbf{H}}_{\mathbf{10}}}\]. |
Answer:
A series of carbon compounds in which the same functional group substitutes for hydrogen in a carbon chain is called homologous series. Alkynes - \[{{C}_{3}}{{H}_{4}},{{C}_{4}}{{H}_{6}},{{C}_{5}}{{H}_{8}}\] Alkene - \[{{C}_{3}}{{H}_{6}},\,{{C}_{4}}{{H}_{8}},{{C}_{5}}{{H}_{10}}\]
