The next higher homologue of C6H14 is - (1) C6H14 (2) C7H12 (3) C6H12 (4) C7H16

1 Answer

Answer :

(4) C7H16 Explanation: In chemistry, a homologous series is a series of compounds with a similar general formula, possessing similar chemical properties due to the presence of the same functional group. C6H14 stands for Hexane which is an alkane with six carbon atoms. In the alkane homologous series, each member differs from the previous one by a CH2 group (or 14 atomic mass units). The CH2 group is called Methylene Group. So the higher homologue of Hexane is Heptane (C7H16).
