Question

The correct condensed structural formula of a compound that has seven carbon (C) atoms, 14 hydrogen (H) atoms and one oxygen (O) atom is :

• A. $H_{3}C(C{H}_2{)}_{3}CHO$
• B. $H_{3}CC(C{H}_3{)}_{2}CHCHO$
• C. $H_{3}CC(C{H}_3{)}_{2}C{H}_{2}CHO$
• D. $H_{3}CC\left(C{H}_3{)}_2\right(C{H}_2{)}_{2}CHO$

Answer 1

The correct option is D $H_{3}CC\left(C{H}_3{)}_2\right(C{H}_2{)}_{2}CHO$

The correct answer is option (d) with 7 carbon (C) atoms, 14 hydrogen (H) atoms and 1 oxygen (O) atom.
