What do benzene and cyclohexane have in common?

Benzene and cyclohexane have a similar shape, they both have similar number of carbon atoms. They are both colorless liquid.


What is the molecular formula for dicyclohexyl?

C12H22: The formula for cyclohexane is C6H12, and in dicyclohexyl, two of the hydrogen atoms in two cyclohexane molecules are replaced by a carbon-carbon single bond that connects the two rings.

How many monochloroisomers of cyclohexane are possible?

Cyclohexane can form only one mono-substituted alkyl chloride. Because cyclohexane is a symmetrical molecule with only a single type of carbon atom and no stereoisomers will be formed because there are no asymmetric centers, the product will be the same no matter which carbon the chlorine atom attaches to.


What is the electronic geometry of CH4?

The electronic geometry about the carbon atom is: tetrahedral The orbital hybridization about the carbon atom is: sp^3 The molecular geometry about the carbon atom is: tetrahedral

What Difference between reactivity in hexane and cyclohexane?

Not much. Both are alkanes, and alkanes are highly unreactive. The only reaction for alkanes I can think of off the top of my head is free radical halogenation, but both hexane and cyclohexane have secondary carbons, so reactivity is comparable. Of course, cyclohexane has 6 secondary carbons while hexane only has 4, so you can make the argument that cyclohexane is more reactive in this example.


What is the molecular formula for cyclohexane?

The chemical formula for cyclohexane is C6H12 - It is not an equation, as by definition an equation would need two things that equate to each other (For example 2H2 + O2 --> 2H2O would be a chemical equation as each side is balanced). Cyclohexane is a hexagonal ring-shaped structure.


What is a Alicyclic Hydrocarbon?

When the ends of a carbon chain are bonded to each other in a ring. e.g. cyclohexane


Does cyclohexane burn in air?

Cyclohexane is an alkane and it burns in air with an orange flame and black sooty smoke. The orange flame indicates incomplete combustion. This means there is a lack of oxygen in the air for all the carbon in the alkane to be converted into carbon dioxide (which is complete combustion) so some carbon and carbon monoxide is formed which is the black sooty smoke (incomplete combustion).
