If the molecule C6H12 does not contain a double bond, and there are no branches in it, what will its structure look like?

Answer:
The compound will be cyclohexane, the structure is attached.
Explanation:
Let us calculate the double bond equivalent of the given molecule, which will give us the number of double bonds or rings in the molecule.
DBE = C - (H/2) + (N/2) +1
C = 6
H = 12
N = 0
DBE = 6-6+1 = 1
So there must be a double bond or a ring
As mentioned there is not double bond then there must be a ring with no branching.
So the structure will be as shown in figure.
