Is acetylene a proplene based fuel?
Acetylene, C2H2, is a pretty simple hydrocarbon. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetylene
What is the origin of the name acetylene?
The word acetylene is a noun. Acetylene is a gaseous hydrocarbon. The word was conceived in 1864 by Marcelin-Pierre-Eugene Berthelot, a noted chemist in France.
What is a hydrocarbon with at least one triple covalent bond?
The simplest is acetylene C2H2.
Is acetylene a solution?
No, acetylene is not a solution. It is a hydrocarbon gas composed of carbon and hydrogen atoms, with the chemical formula C2H2. Solutions typically involve a solute being dissolved in a solvent, but acetylene exists as a pure gas under normal conditions.
What compound has the formula C2H2?
The compound with the formula C2H2 is ethyne, also known as acetylene. It is a hydrocarbon gas that is commonly used in welding and as a building block in organic synthesis.
Can Acetylene Gas be used to form long chain hydrocarbons?
I have heard that Methane can be used to form longer chain hydrocarbon fuels, -why not the much higher energy bonded Acetylene?
Which is more acetic water or acetylene?
Acetic acid is a derivative of acetylene that is more acidic in nature. Acetylene is a hydrocarbon gas composed of two carbon atoms and two hydrogen atoms. Water, on the other hand, is a compound composed of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom.
Is methanol an aromatic hydrocarbon?
Yes. It is a polycyclic aromatic. A white solid, it consists of two benzene rings "fused" together, sharing two carbon atoms. It has a formula of C10H8. It has a distinctive smell, and is traditionally used as "mothballs".
Is methane the simplest unsaturated hydrocarbon?
No, methane is actually the simplest saturated hydrocarbon as it consists of single carbon and four hydrogen atoms. Unsaturated hydrocarbons contain at least one carbon-carbon double or triple bond, such as ethylene (C2H4) or acetylene (C2H2).
Which hydrocarbon is a member of the series with the general formula cnh2n -2?
The hydrocarbon that fits the general formula CnH2n-2 is an alkyne. Alkynes are unsaturated hydrocarbons with a carbon-carbon triple bond.
Is acetylene a saturated hydrocarbon?
It is a saturated hydrocarbon. This because it contains the maximum number of hydrogen required to bind with the carbon atoms present in the compound
What is the name of c2h3?
The name of C2H3 is ethyne, also known as acetylene. It is a hydrocarbon compound with a triple bond between two carbon atoms, commonly used in welding and cutting torches.
