Longest continuous chain of alkene containing parents chain of
Correct answer: C. C=C
- A. C-C
- B. C-C-C
- C. C=C
- D. Both a and c
Explanation
The correct answer is Option C:C=C. In alkene structures, carbons are sp2 hybridized with double bonds between them. Option A and B are incorrect as they do not exhibit the necessary double bonds characteristic of alkenes. Option D is also incorrect as it mixes properties of alkanes and alkenes together, while alkenes must have double bonds, unlike option A.

About Chemistry of Hydrocarbons
Hydrocarbons are studied through the structures and reactions of alkanes, alkenes, alkynes and aromatic compounds. Coverage includes free radical substitution in alkanes, electrophilic addition to carbon-carbon multiple bonds, benzene substitution, aromatic stability and the difference between addition reactions of alkenes and substitution reactions of benzene.
