For C₆H₁₂, X counts alkene structures and Z counts cycloalkane structures, ignoring stereoisomers. Find X/Z.

Answer:
1.08
Solution:

There are 13 acyclic alkene connectivities: three unbranched hexenes,six methylpentenes,one ethylbutene,three dimethylbutenes. The 12 monocyclic connectivities are cyclohexane;methylcyclopentane;ethylcyclobutane and three dimethylcyclobutanes;two propylcyclopropanes,two ethylmethylcyclopropanes,two trimethylcyclopropanes. Ignoring stereoisomers, X/Z=13/12=1.0833≈1.08.
