Carbon forms the backbone of Biology for all life on Earth. Complex molecules are made up of carbon bonded with other elements, especially oxygen, hydrogen and nitrogen, and carbon is able to bond with all of these because of its four valence electrons. It is often assumed in astrobiology that if life exists somewhere else in the universe, it will also be carbon based. This assumption is referred to by critics as carbon chauvinism.
glycerol(a molecule) and the threee fatty acid molecules connected together in the shape of an E.
Carbon and hydrogen are the elements in a hydrocarbon.
Hydrocarbon?
No. helium is a noble gas. Helium is an element. Hydrocarbon are compounds containing carbon and hydrogen.
it has 4 right Angles
Butane is not an element, but a complex hydrocarbon molecule, C4H10.
Hydrocarbons are compounds having carbon and hydrogen. Since they are compounds, they dont have symbols.
No. It is an element.
Hydrocarbon?
A substituted hydrocarbon created from a hydrocarbon chain is by replacing at least one hydrogen atom with an atom of another element.
No. helium is a noble gas. Helium is an element. Hydrocarbon are compounds containing carbon and hydrogen.

A hydrocarbon.
Butane is not an element, but a complex hydrocarbon molecule, C4H10.
Mixture of hydrocarbon compounds
Hydrocarbons are compounds having carbon and hydrogen. Since they are compounds, they dont have symbols.
No, a hydrocarbon is a compound containing C and H only, whereas halogenation is the addition of a halogen (group VII element)
NO - chlorine is an element. Oil is a hydrocarbon, made of hydrogen and carbon.
no, chloroethene is not an alkane as all alkanes end with an -ane so chloroethene will be an alkene as it ends with -ene.
