There are 2 atoms of Carbon and 6 atoms of Hydrogen. If you have trouble on any future chemical compounds, try typing the name straight into wikipedia and it will tell you everything you need to know :) there are two atoms of carbon in ethane as the prefix eth represents the number of carbons within the carbon chain. Eth representing two opposed to meth representing one and prop representing 3 these prefixes are somewhat endless.

∙ 14y ago6 hydrogen atoms.
formula of ethane is C2H6

∙ 11y ago1 mole of ethan contain 6.02X10^23 molecule so 1 mole of ethan contain (6.02x10^23x10)=6.02x10^24

∙ 11y ago8. The formula for ethane is C2H6. Therefore 2 atoms of carbon, 6 of hydrogen, totalling 8.

What alkene has the formula c3h6?
Yes. It is called hexane because of the six carbon atoms per molecule.
How many carbon atoms does fumarate have?
four carbon atoms
How many bonds in the molecular formula of ethane C2H6?
Both the choices given are acceptable and correct chemical formulas in most contexts, because each one shows the presence of two carbon atoms and six hydrogen atoms in each molecule. The second formula is preferred in some contexts because it hints at the structural formula of the molecule, which has each hydrogen atom bonded directly to only one of the carbon atoms, and in order to further emphasize this point the formula is sometimes written as H3C-CH3.
How many atoms does a molecule of methane contain?
The molecule of methane has 5 atoms.
How many atoms of carbon and hydrogen does decane have in it?
Decane has 10 carbon atoms and 22 hydrogen atoms.
How many carbon atoms are contained in 5.50 gms of ethane?
30 g of ethane will have 6.023 x 1023 molecules of ethane So, 5.5 g will have 1.104 x 1023 molecules of ethane Since there are two carbon atoms, in one molecule of ethane, 5.5 g of ethane will have 2.208 x 1023 atoms of carbon.
How many carbon dioxide molecules will be formed in two ethane molecules?
Ethane does not have any molecule of carbon dioxide. However when ethane undergoes combustion then two molecules of carbon dioxide are formed (as ethane contains two carbon atoms).
How many atoms in ethane?
There is a total of 8 atoms in Ethane.
What compound is made of 2 carbon atoms and 6 hydrogen atoms?
Ethane
How many moles of carbon atoms are in 0.500 mole of C2H6?
The Law of Definite Proportions states that for every mole of ethane, there will be two moles of carbon. Then there is 1 mole of carbon in one half a mole of ethane.
What do the subscripts in the formula for ethane represent?
subscripts in a formula indicates the number of atoms in a molecule or the ratio of elements in a compound.
A molecule of ethane and a molecule of ethene both have the same?
number of carbon atoms
Why can ethane be classed as a hydrocarbon?
Because it contains only hydrogen and carbon atoms.
Skeletal formula ehtane?
The skeletal formula for ethane will show how the six hydrogen atoms share 1 electron with carbon in order to form six carbon-hydrogen covalent bonds. The two carbon atoms, in turn, will each share an electron to form on carbon-carbon covalent bond. This makes up the ethane molecule.
Why doesnt ethane have any structural isomers?
Ethane consists of only 2 carbon atoms and 6 hydrogen atoms. Given that each carbon atom can form 4 bonds and each hydrogen can form 1 bond there is only 1 possible configuration.
What are Hydrocarbon molecules are generally what?
Molecules only made up of hydogen and carbon atoms, for example Ethane.
What are the roots for hydrocarbons containing two three and four carbon atoms?
These hydrocarbons are ethane, propane, butane.
