An alkane has molecular formula CnH2n+2 what is the difference between this molecule and an alkane?

That will help you come up with a general formula.

This molecule is an alkene ?

I got C24H48O?

No an alkene is a hydrocarbon. The general formula for the homologous series in the question is CnH2nO, so yes :smile:

I can confirm that you did not say "yes" but good attempt.
