Step-by-step solution

2 steps
  1. Identify the functional groups and carbon chain.

    The given compound is HO−CH2−C≡C−CH2−C≡CH\text{HO}-\text{CH}_{2}-\text{C}\equiv\text{C}-\text{CH}_{2}-\text{C}\equiv\text{CH}.

    • It has an alcohol (OH\text{OH}) group.
    • It has two alkyne (C≡C\text{C}\equiv\text{C}) groups.
    • The carbon chain consists of 6 carbons.
  2. Draw the skeletal structure.

    In a skeletal structure:

    • Carbon atoms are represented by vertices and ends of lines.
    • Hydrogen atoms attached to carbon atoms are implied and not explicitly drawn.
    • Hydrogen atoms attached to heteroatoms (like oxygen in OH\text{OH}) are explicitly drawn
