Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine whether the statement "Propane forms only one alkyl group" is correct, we need to analyze the structure of propane and the alkyl groups that can be derived from it. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Propane Structure**: - Propane is an alkane with the molecular formula \( C_3H_8 \). - Its structural formula can be represented as \( CH_3-CH_2-CH_3 \). ...
