Yes.
Butane is a COMPOUND. It is a combination of hydrogen atoms and carbon atoms. Because it contains only hydrogen and carbon iti is one of the numerous 'hydrocarbon' compounds. Because the atoms are 'singly' covalently bonded, it is part of the functional group of hydrocarbons named, ALKANES.
No, hydrocarbons contain carbon (C) and hydrogen (H) NH3 is a compound of nitrogen and hydrogen.
One example of a compound that contains carbon and hydrogen atoms is methane (CH4), which is a simple hydrocarbon. Another example is ethylene (C2H4), which is a double-bonded hydrocarbon commonly used in the production of plastics.
There are several billion different such hydrocarbon compounds.
A saturated hydrocarbon contains only single bonds between carbon atoms, making it "saturated" with hydrogen atoms. This type of organic compound forms a continuous chain of carbon atoms with hydrogen atoms attached to each carbon.
Hexane is a compound. It is a simple hydrocarbon molecule consisting of six carbon atoms and 14 hydrogen atoms.
No, a hydrocarbon is a compound made up of only hydrogen and carbon atoms. CH2 represents a specific chemical formula for a hydrocarbon, which is ethylene, a simple alkene molecule made up of two carbon atoms and two hydrogen atoms.
The ratio of carbon to hydrogen in a hydrocarbon molecule can vary depending on the specific compound. However, in general, hydrocarbons tend to have a higher ratio of hydrogen atoms to carbon atoms. For example, in the simplest hydrocarbon, methane (CH4), the ratio of carbon to hydrogen is 1:4.
Yes. CCl4 is the derivative of the hydrocarbon, CH4.
Hydrocarbons are a whole family of compounds of carbon and hydrogen.
Compound c, C2H6, is a hydrocarbon. It consists of only carbon and hydrogen atoms, which are the defining characteristic of hydrocarbons. The other compounds listed contain oxygen in addition to carbon and hydrogen.
No, when the carbon atoms in hydrocarbon molecules are bonded to as many hydrogen atoms as possible, a saturated hydrocarbon is produced. Unsaturated hydrocarbons have carbon-carbon double or triple bonds, resulting in fewer hydrogen atoms bonded to the carbon atoms.
