Answer:

Answer is C₈H₁₄

Explanation:

The general molecular formula of alkanes (saturated hydrocarbons) is:

CₙH₂ₙ₊₂

Where n = number of carbon atoms.

The general molecular formula of alkenes (unsaturated hydrocarbons) is:

CₙH₂ₙ

The general molecular formula of alkynes (unsaturated hydrocarbons) is:

CₙH₂ₙ₋₂

Now let us check the formula of given compounds

a)C₅H₁₂

n = 5

2n=10

2n+2=12

so this is an alkane, saturated hydrocarbon.

b)C₇H₁₆

n = 7

2n=14

2n+2=14

so this is an alkane, saturated hydrocarbon.

c)C₆H₁₄

n = 6

2n=12

2n+2=14

so this is an alkane, saturated hydrocarbon.

d) C₈H₁₆

n = 8

2n=16

2n+2=18

2n-2=14

so this is an alkyne, unsaturated hydrocarbon.

The Copernican Revolution become the paradigm shift from the Ptolemaic model of the heavens, which described the cosmos as having Earth stationery on the center of the universe, to the heliocentric version with the solar on the center of the solar system.

Copernican Revolution, shift the subject of astronomy from a geocentric understanding of the universe, focused around Earth, to heliocentric knowledge, concentrated across the sun, as articulated by the Polish astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus.

This revolution changed the way of thinking of the solar system. Earlier it was thought that earth is in the center of the solar sysytem,i.e; people believed in the geocentric model, but according to Copernicus the solar system has the sun at the center and the remaining planets revolve around it i.e he believed in a heliocentric model.
