A straight chain hydrocarbon with the formula C3H4 _____. has a triple C-C bond has a double C-C bond is essentially inert has two double C-C bonds

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

@aaronq I dont know where to go with this :\

OpenStudy (somy):

try drawing it @Xmoses1

OpenStudy (somy):

has a double C-C bond is wrong because if u draw a straight line chain with 1 double bond you'll need 6 H atoms is essentially inert- i think also is wrong since inert means unreactive, but C3H4 has to have double or triple bond thus they are reactive (alkanes are mostly unreactive due to full saturation with H atoms)

OpenStudy (somy):

has a triple C-C bond, has 2 double bonds i think both are possible though im not sure

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

Haha Thanks @Somy i just guessed that it had Two double C-C bonds :p

OpenStudy (somy):

lol that's what i thought in the first place but after drawing with 1 triple bond i saw it's possible also @Xmoses1

OpenStudy (somy):

u r welcome :) @Xmoses1
