For the following compounds, write structural formulas and IUPAC names for all possible isomers having the number of double or triple bond as indicated :
A group of students is analyzing the bonding in ethene (C₂H₄), ethyne (C₂H₂), and methane (CH₄) using the concept of hybridization. They discover: - In methane, carbon forms four sigma bonds using sp³ hybrid orbitals. - In ethene, carbon forms three sigma bonds using sp² hybrid orbitals, and a π bond using unhybridized p-orbitals. - In ethyne, carbon uses sp hybrid orbitals and forms two π bonds due to two unhybridized p-orbitals.
