The molecule ch3-ch2-ch2-ch2-ch2-ch2-ch3 is best described as a(n)

Given molecule:

CH3-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH3

- The molecule contain only C and H atoms, hence it is a hydrocarbon

- The C atoms in the linear chain are linked together by carbon-carbon single bonds, hence it is a saturated compound

- It has 7 C atoms and 16 H atoms, hence the molecular formula is C7H16

-The molecular formula can be generally represented as CnH2n+2 where n = 7. This corresponds to the general molecular formula for alkanes

The given molecule is best described as an alkane
