or the formula C6H14 , calculate the index of hydrogen deficiency (IHD) and select all the types of unsaturation that might be present in the molecule based on the IHD. The IHD is Which types of unsaturation might be present

See explanation

Explanation:

The term IHD means index of hydrogen deficiency. It tells us the number of missing hydrogen atoms from a given chemical formula. This number of missing hydrogen atoms corresponds to the number and type of multiple bonds in a given compound.

The formula for IHD is; IHD = C + 1 + N/2 – H/2 – X/2

C = Number of carbon atoms

N = Number of nitrogen atoms

H = Number of hydrogen atoms

X = Number of halogen atoms

Since;

N=0, X=0

Then;

IHD = C + 1 – H/2

Hence;

IHD = 6 + 1 - 14/2

IHD = 7 -7

IHD = 0

An IHD of 0 implies that there is no hydrogen deficiency or multiple bond in the molecule. It is purely a saturated compound.
