Dear Student
Hexane and cyclohexane both belong to two diiferent class of compounds.
Hexane is from the class alkane which has general molecular foemula CnH2n+2 while cyclohexane belongs to cycloalkane having general molecular formula CnH2n.
Also while drawing the structure of the two compounds we can easily find out the molecular formula.
We hope that clarifies your query.
