Yes, any hydrocarbon with C & H with a double or triple bond is unsaturated
no, chloroethene is not an alkane as all alkanes end with an -ane so chloroethene will be an alkene as it ends with -ene.
That depends what the monomer is. Most unsaturated monomers are manufactured commercially from crude oil. Ethene, for instance, is made by cracking the gas oil fraction of crude oil. Vinyl chloride is then made from ethene. Styrene is made from benzene and ethene.
Both ethene and ethane contain two carbons. Ethene has a double bond between its two carbons while ethane has a single bond. Because of this, ethane contains six hydrogen atoms, but ethene only contains four.
CH3CH3 ethane is saturated. CH2=CH2 ethene (ethylene) is unstaurated. C17H35COOH stearic acid is saturated. C17H33COOH oleic acid is unsaturated. C17H29COOH Linolenic acid is polyunstaurated.
As ethene contains double bond it is considered as unsaturated hydrocarbon. Note-hydrocarbon is said to saturated when it contain C-C single bond and hydrocarbon is said to unsaturated when it has carbon carbon double or triple bonds
Yes, any hydrocarbon with C & H with a double or triple bond is unsaturated
The hydrocarbon ethene has a chemical formula of C2H4.
An unsaturated hydrocarbon is a hydrocarbon containing at least one double or triple bond between carbon atoms. An alkene is a hydrocarbon containing double bonds. An alkyne is a hydrocarbon containing triple bonds. Ethene, C2H4, is an example of an unsaturated hydrocarbon with a double bond. ethyne (acetylene), C2H2 is an example of an unsaturated hydrocarbon with a triple bond. H-C=C-H The names of unsaturated hydrocarbons that have a double bonds end with the suffix -ene. The names of unsaturated hydrocarbons that have a triple bonds end with the suffix -yne.
Ethene may not be the smallest what about ethyne? Ethene, ethylene, is C2H4 Unsaturated hydrocarbon molecules contain double or triple bonds. The smallest will either be ethene C2H4 with one double bond, or ethyne , acetylene, HCCH with one triple bond. Ethyne wins, it has 2 less hydrogen atoms making it the LIGHTEST. Look at the structures in wikipedia and work out which is physically the smallest. I still go with ethyne. Wikipedia Ethene Wikipedia Ethyne
Because there is a double bond
no, chloroethene is not an alkane as all alkanes end with an -ane so chloroethene will be an alkene as it ends with -ene.
It is a completely different compound with its own unique chemical and physical properties. Ethene conatins a C=C double bond and is an unsaturated hydrocarbon, decane and hexane are alkanes and conatin only single C-C bonds
Apex- A hydrocarbon containing a carbon-carbon double bond
That depends what the monomer is. Most unsaturated monomers are manufactured commercially from crude oil. Ethene, for instance, is made by cracking the gas oil fraction of crude oil. Vinyl chloride is then made from ethene. Styrene is made from benzene and ethene.
Yes. It is an addition polymer of ethene so it is a hydrocarbon.
Both ethene and ethane contain two carbons. Ethene has a double bond between its two carbons while ethane has a single bond. Because of this, ethane contains six hydrogen atoms, but ethene only contains four.
