Yes, because all the valencies of carbon atoms are satisfied by sigma bonding and cycloakane does not undergo the addition reactions.

However many chemists would say that only alkanes are fully saturated and these have no ring structure and a general formula of CnH2n+2

Is cyclohexane a strong base?

No, cyclohexane is not a base at all. It is a saturated hydrocarbon that is nonpolar and does not possess any acidic or basic properties.

Does cyclohexane and hexane form a solution?

Propane, being a GAS but an aliphatic hydrocarbon is soluble in cyclohexane, which is a liquid and a cycloaliphatic hydrocarbon. .


Why cyclohexane has higher colour intensity than cyclohexene?

Cyclohexane has higher color intensity than cyclohexene because cyclohexane is a saturated hydrocarbon with no double bonds, making it more stable and less prone to degradation or color changes. Cyclohexene, on the other hand, is an unsaturated hydrocarbon with a double bond that is more reactive and susceptible to color changes due to oxidation or other chemical reactions.


How does the name of a hydrocarbon tell you whether of not it is saturated?

Alkanes are saturated, so if the hydrocarbon has -ane at the end of it, it is saturated.


Is Cyclohexane a cyclic hydrocarbon having six carbon atoms in a straight chain?

No, Cyclohexane is a cyclic hydrocarbon with six carbon atoms arranged in a ring structure, not in a straight chain.


Is hex-1-ene saturated or unsaturated hydrocarbon?

Methylbenzene (toluene) is a cyclic hydrocarbon based on the benzene ring (C6H6) with a methyl group (CH3) replacing one of the hydrogens to give C7H8. The benzene ring itself is a rather special kind of hydrocarbon, but is considered to be unsaturated - Therefore, toluene is unsaturated. The saturated equivalent of benzene is cyclohexane (C6H12). The saturated equivalent of toluene is methylcyclohexane, C7H14.


What is the different between saturated and unsaturated?

Saturated hydrocarbon does not decolourise bromine water while unsaturated hydrocarbon decolourize it.


If a hydrocarbon C5H10 behaves as saturated compound then it must be a?

If a hydrocarbon C5H10 behaves as a saturated compound, it must be a cyclopentane. Saturated compounds contain only single bonds, and in the case of C5H10, cyclopentane is the only possible saturated hydrocarbon solution.


Is the molecular formula for cyclohexane the same as that of the n-hexane?

No, the molecular formula for cyclohexane is C6H12, while the molecular formula for n-hexane is C6H14. Cyclohexane is a cyclic hydrocarbon with a ring structure, while n-hexane is a straight-chain hydrocarbon.
