Here are the general molecular formulas for the requested classes of organic compounds:

  • Alkane: CnH2n+2\text{C}_n\text{H}_{2n+2} (where n≥1n \ge 1)
  • Alkene: CnH2n\text{C}_n\text{H}_{2n} (where n≥2n \ge 2, for compounds with one carbon-carbon double bond)
  • Alkyne: CnH2n−2\text{C}_n\text{H}_{2n-2} (where n≥2n \ge 2, for compounds with one carbon-carbon triple bond)
  • Benzene: C6H6\text{C}_6\text{H}_6 (This is a specific aromatic compound)
  • Alcohol: CnH2n+2O\text{C}_n\text{H}_{2n+2}\text{O} (where n≥1n \ge 1)
  • Alkanoic acid (Carboxylic acid): CnH2nO2\text{C}_n\text{H}_{2n}\text{O}_2 (where n≥1n \ge 1)
  • Aldehyde: CnH2nO\text{C}_n\text{H}_{2n}\text{O} (where n≥1n \ge 1)
  • Ketone: CnH2nO\text{C}_n\text{H}_{2n}\text{O} (where n≥3n \ge 3)
