What functional group present in propannone?
Propanone (a.k.a. acetone) contains a ketone as a functional group as well as alkane hydrocarbons.
Is ethane saturated?
As methane belongs to the group alkane compounds which do not contain C=C double bond therefore is saturated and not easily reacting with other molecules.
Do saturated fatty acids contain a carboxyl group?
No double bonds. A saturated fat has hydrocarbon chains that are close together. An unsaturated fat contains double bonds in the hydrocarbon chains which makes a kink in the chain. This makes them sit farther apart and thus more liquid than saturated hydrocarbons.
What is a hydrocarbon with a hydroxyl group attached to a saturated carbon atom?
Alkenes have double bond between two carbon atoms
IS Acetic acid a carbohydrate?
Yes, it is a 3-carbon carbohydrate. Carbohydate = hydrocarbons with keto/ aldo functional group. Acetone contains a keto group and is composed of hydrogens and carbons
What is a property of hydrocarbons?
It is a solid,m.p 126-127oC It contains an alcoholic group in its structure Its molecular formular is C18H16 It is 3'-methyl-1,2-cyclopenophenantrene
Are saturated Hydrocarbons non-polar?
Hydrocarbons are usually nonpolar, since their bonds line up opposite each other to cancel out any dipole moment. But in small hydrocarbons that have an alcohol group (OH), which is a polar group, a small dipole moment can result thus making the hydrocarbon polar. But in large chains hydrocarbons containing one alcohol group, the size of the hydrocarbon cancels any polarity resulting from the group out, thus the hydrocarbon is nonpolar.
What chemical contains a carbon double bond?
These are unsaturated organic compounds.
Are hydrocarbons in the carboxyl group?
This wording of this question sounds like you may be confused. In the term "carboxyl group", group refers to a specific group of atoms (COOH), not to a group of similar types of compounds. Since hydrocarbons by definition contain only carbon and hydrogen, a hydrocarbon cannot contain a carboxyl group.
What are the health and safety hazards of hydrocarbons?
Hydrocarbons are a vast and varied group of chemicals with a wide range of health and safety hazards. No single hazard applies to all hydrocarbons. It is best to seek information about the hazards of specific hydrocarbons by category or by specific chemical name.
What is a 2 carbon saturated alkyl group?
propyl
Does ethanol contains the carbonyl group?
No. Ethanol contains a hydroxyl group, but not a carbonyl group.
