How does an alkyl group differ from its parent alkane?
When one hydrogen is removed from an alkane it forms alkyl group
What reactant used to convert alkene to alkane?
Hydrogen
What is the name of the alkyl group -C4H9?
Butyl! Alkane is CnH2n+2 Alkyl group is alkane - hydrogen CnH2n+1
If an acyclic alkane hydrocarbon contains n carbon atoms how many hydrogen atoms must it also contain?
Then the acyclic alkane hydrocarbon contains 2n+2 hydrogen atoms.
How many hydrogens are present on an alkane with 20 carbons?
An alkane with n carbon atoms has 2n + 2 hydrogen atoms.So, 42.
How many Hydrogen atoms are in an Alkane with 16 Carbon atoms?
A non cyclic alkane always has a number of hydrogen atoms equal to 2c + 2, where c is the number of carbon atoms. Therefore, hexadecane, an alkane with 16 carbon atoms, will have 34 hydrogen atoms.
How does an alkyl group differ from its parent alkane?
When one hydrogen is removed from an alkane it forms alkyl group
What reactant used to convert alkene to alkane?
Hydrogen
Is carbon monoxide an example of an alkane?
No. An alkane is a compound of carbon and hydrogen. Carbon monoxide consists of carbon and oxygen.
What is the name of the alkyl group -C4H9?
Butyl! Alkane is CnH2n+2 Alkyl group is alkane - hydrogen CnH2n+1
What is an alkane in which a halogen atom replaces one or more hydrogen atoms on a carbon chain?
halo alkane or alkyl halides
If an acyclic alkane hydrocarbon contains n carbon atoms how many hydrogen atoms must it also contain?
Then the acyclic alkane hydrocarbon contains 2n+2 hydrogen atoms.
An alkane is defined by?
In Science an alkane is a paraffin, an organic compound and is a saturated hydrocarbon. Made up of only carbon and hydrogen atoms.
What is the molecular formula for a 18 carbon alkane?
This alkane is n-octadecane with the chemical formula C18H38.
Why does a 4 carbon linear alkane have two more hydrogen atoms than a 4 carbon cyclic alkane?
octet rule
How many hydrogens are present on an alkane with 20 carbons?
An alkane with n carbon atoms has 2n + 2 hydrogen atoms.So, 42.
What is the formula for alkane?
The generic formula for a non cyclic alkane is CxH(2x + 2).
