Hydrocarbons contain only hydrogen and carbon, whereas carbohydrates contain carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Carbohydrates, because they also contain oxygen, typically have more bonding variety.

Why might chemists want to prepare substituted hydrocarbons?
so it can suck on a bannana
Why are different hydrocarbons have different melting points?
hydrocarbons have different boiling point, the greater the size, the higher the boiling point. This is easily explained by if you imagine a bowl of spaghetti- it is easier to pull out a small strang (it takes less energy). It is the same with hydrocarbons hope that helps
What is surface tension in hydrocarbons?
Each liquid hydrocarbon has a different surface tension.
What is the use of a fractional column?
It is used in a petroleum refinery to separate out the different hydrocarbons.
How are hydrocarbons similar. How are they different?
well i don't know Zzz up people
The chemical properties of substituted hydrocarbons are not different than the properties of the original hydrocarbons?
True. The chemical properties of substituted hydrocarbons aren't different than the properties of the original hydrocarbons.
Are the chemical properties of substituted hydrocarbons different than the properties of the original hydrocarbon?
True. The chemical properties of substituted hydrocarbons aren't different than the properties of the original hydrocarbons.
What are hydrocarbons and substituted hydrocarbon are?
hydrocarbons are the organic compounds of carbon and hydrogen
Are butane and isobutane substituted hydrocarbons if not what are they?
No. Butane and isobutane are simple hydrocarbons and isomers of one another.
What are hydrocarbon and substituted hydrocarbon?
hydrocarbons are the organic compounds of carbon and hydrogen

Why do chemist might want to prepare substituted hydrocarbons?

How are hydrocarbons different?
One of these hydrocarbons is longer than the other.
What are the different types of hydrocarbons in terms of its chemical properties?
hydrocarbons (arenes), alkanes, alkenes, cycloalkanes and alkyne-based compounds are different types of hydrocarbons.
What hydrocarbons are acids and alcohols?
None - hydrocarbons are chemically different than acids and alcohols
What type of reactions do saturated hydrocarbons undergo as opposed to unsaturated hydrocarbons?
Subistitution reaction: It's a reaction where the bonds of unsaturated alkenes (double bond) can be broken down and substituted by other elements, which replace hydrogen bonds. Also they will form only a single bond.
Why cam carbon and hydrogen form so many hydrocarbons?
Carbon can form chains of variable length and configuration, each different, so there are many different hydrocarbons.
