What you want is
Simply count the number of carbon atoms (all of these have six), and then draw out the implicit hydrogens. Any given carbon atom in MANY cases has at most 4 bonds.
- cis-dimethylcyclobutane is valid. Four carbon ring atoms, two being
#"CH"_2# and two being#"CH"# , and two external carbons each being#"CH"_3# . - Any five-coordinate hydrocarbon is invalid by virtue of not existing...
- 2,3-dimethylbutene is valid. Two double-bond carbon atoms with no
#"H"# , and four external carbons each being#"CH"_3# . - 2-ethylbutane is invalid. The main chain has four carbon atoms, two of which are
#"CH"_3# , one is#"CH"_2# , and one is#"CH"# . The ethyl adds#"CH"_2# and#"CH"_3# , giving#14# hydrogen atoms, not#12# .
