Here's the question bank on all the general science topics.

The number of saturated and unsaturated bonds in cyclohexane are:

A.
9 and 0 respectively.
B.
18 and 3 respectively.
C.
18 and 0 respectively.
D.
9 and 3 respectively.

Solution:

Concept:In organic chemistry, a saturated compound is one that contains all of the single bonds between carbon atoms. Example: cycloalkanes. They have a general formula as CnH2n.Unsaturated compounds are organic compounds that contain at least one double or triple bond between carbon atoms Explanation:Cyclohexane is a saturated compound because it contains single bonds between carbon-carbon atoms.From the above structure, it is clear that six carbon atoms are arranged in a ring and each carbon atom is joined to two hydrogen atoms to complete its octet. Because all six carbon atoms are linked by a single bond, the compound is saturated.As a result, cyclohexane has 18 single bonds ( 6 carbon-carbon bonds and 12 carbon-hydrogen bonds) and 0 unsaturated bonds. Thus, The number of saturated and unsaturated bonds in cyclohexane are 18 and 0 respectively.
