What else can I help you with?
Example of saturated hydrocarbon?
methane, CH4, and other alkanes
Oil is and example of?
energy sources: fossil fuels chemistry: alkanes
What is an example of covalent?
all hydrocarbons like alkanes, alkenes etc
Which alkanes are liquid?
pentane and other alkanes above it
What come from crude oil alkanes or alkenes?
alkanes
Do alkanes contain phosphorus?
No. alkanes contain only hydrogen and carbon.
What does the suffix an mean?
The suffix "ane" identifies the compounds or items as alkanes. For example, methane, ethane, propane, etc.
Are longer chain alkanes more flammable than shorter chain alkanes?
Shorter chain alkanes are generally more flammable than longer chain alkanes. This is because shorter chain alkanes are more volatile and readily vaporize, making them easier to ignite. Longer chain alkanes are less volatile and require higher temperatures to vaporize and ignite.
Hydrocarbons which have only single bonds between carbon atoms?
Alkanes are hydrocarbons that have only single bonds between carbon atoms. They are saturated hydrocarbons with the general formula CnH2n+2, where n represents the number of carbon atoms in the molecule. Alkanes are relatively inert and have straight or branched chain structures.
What the advantages of using alkanes?
Alkanes are, 1- good fuel, 2-higer alkanes are good lubricants, 3- they are antiseptic for external use.
What are 3 kinds of carbon chains found in hydrocarbons?
Alkanes alkanes and alkynes
Why alkanes called parafins?
because of their unreactive nature alkanes are called parrafins
