Homologous series of Carbon #!#Part 2

Define a homologous series of carbon compounds.

Define homologous series of carbon compound. List any two characteristics of a homologous series.

What are homologous series of carbon compounds ? Write the molecular formula of two consecuative members of homologous series of aldehydes. State which part of these compounds determines their (i) physical and (ii) chemical properties.

Why are homologous series of carbon compounds so called? Write chemical formula of two consecutive members of a homologous series and stte the part of these compounds that determines their (i) physical properties, and (ii) chemical properties.

What is a homologous series of carbon compounds? Give an example and list its three characteristics.

Write the molecular formula of the third and fifth members of homologous series of carbon compounds represented by the general formula C_(n)H_(2n-2) .

Write the molecular formula of the fourth and fifth members of the homologous series of carbon compounds represented by the general formula C_(n)H_(2n+1)-OH
