Option 1 states that cyclohexane has 9 saturated bonds and 0 unsaturated bonds. This is incorrect. Cyclohexane is a saturated compound, meaning it only contains single bonds between its carbon atoms. Since cyclohexane has 6 carbon atoms, it would have a total of 6 single bonds, resulting in 6 saturated bonds.
Option 2 suggests that cyclohexane has 18 saturated bonds and 3 unsaturated bonds. This is incorrect. As mentioned earlier, cyclohexane only has single bonds, so it can`t have any unsaturated bonds. Therefore, the correct number of saturated bonds would be 6, not 18.
Option 3 correctly states that cyclohexane has 18 saturated bonds and 0 unsaturated bonds. This is the correct answer. Since cyclohexane is a saturated compound, it consists of only single bonds between its carbon atoms. With 6 carbon atoms, there are a total of 6 single bonds, resulting in 6 carbon-carbon sigma bonds. Multiply this by 3 (since each carbon atom is connected to 2 other carbon atoms), and we get 18 saturated bonds.
Option 4 suggests that cyclohexane has 9 saturated bonds and
