Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Drawing the structure formula of ethane `(C_(2)H_(6))`:
Step I - Link the carbon atoms together by a single bond.
`C-C`
Step II - Complete the tetravalency of carbon atoms by forming single bonds with hydrogen atoms.
`underset("Ethane")(H-overset(H)overset(|)underset(H)underset(|)C-overset(H)overset(|)underset(H)underset(|)C-H)`
