Q

What will be the fourth next member of the homologous series of the compound propene?

✓ Answer: B C7H14
In the homologous series of alkenes, the general formula is CnH2n. Propene (C3H6) is the third member in the series, so the fourth next member would be C7H14, where n=7. Alkenes are hydrocarbons with a carbon-carbon double bond, and each successive member in the series differs by a CH2 unit.
