Homologous series is a group of organic compounds having a similar structure and chemical properties in which the successive compounds differ by a -CH2 group.

 

Characteristics of a Homologous Series

  1. Each member of the series differs from the preceding one by the addition of a -CH2 group and by 14 a.m.u.
  2. All members of a homologous series have the same general formula.

For example: the general formula for alkane is CnH2n+2 and alkene is CnH2n.

  1. The physical properties of the members show a gradation in properties as their molecular mass increases.
  2. The chemical properties also show a gradient similarity.
