The general formula of a cycloalkane is

A

`C_(n)H_(n)`

B

`C_(n)H_(2n)`

C

`C_(n)H_(2n-2)`

D

`C_(n)H_(2n+2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

General formula for cycloalkane `rightarrow C_(n)H_(2n)` as `-(CH_(2))-` is the repeated unit.Therefore general formula `-(CH_(2))_(n)- = C_(n)H_(2n)`
