a.
6-methyl-2-octyne
b.
5-ethyl-4-methyl-1-heptyne
c.
2-bromo-4-octyne
3.
The general molecular formula of a noncyclic hydrocarbon is
C
n
H
2
n
+
2
.
Therefore, the molecular formula for a noncyclic hydrocarbon with 14 carbons is
C
14
H
30
.
Because a compound has two fewer hydrogens for every ring and
p
bond, a compound with one ring and 4
p
bonds (2 triple bonds) has 10 fewer hydrogens than the C
n
H
2
n
+

formula.
Therefore, the molecular formula is
C

H
