Answer:

The hydrocarbon has a double C-C bond.

Explanation:

Degree of unsaturation is a calculation that allows to know the number of rings and π-bonds.

For a hydrocarbon of formula CₓHₙ, the degree of unsaturation is:

[tex]DoU= \frac{2x+2-n}{2}[/tex]

For C₆H₁₂:

[tex]DoU= \frac{2*6+2-12}{2}[/tex] = 1.

As the hydrocarbon is a straight-chain hydrocarbon, there are not rings, thus, degree of unsaturation is due 1  π-bond, that means that hydrocarbon has a double C-C bond.

I hope it helps!
