Paraffin is a hydrocarbon, but the term applies to a "group" of molecules and not a specific one. The general formula applied to these alkanes is CnH2n+2, and the "series" of compounds begins with methane, CH4. In that example, there is a single carbon atom, and the number of hydrogens with it, according to the formula, is (2 x 1) + 2, or 4. After methane, we see ethane (C2H6), propane (C3H8) and onward, with all molecules following the "rule" suggested with the CnH2n+2 expression. If the inquiry is one regarding paraffin wax, this is not a single molecule, either. It is any one or a combination of the paraffin molecules with n between 20 and 40. That means the molecules with have a molecular formula including C20H42 and C40H82, and also those that are "between" these two. C21H44, C22H46, and the rest will appear on your list, if you're making one. In case you didn't snap to it, as we begin to examine this group of compounds we'll find substances that are a gas at room temperature. On up the chain we'll encounter some that are liquids at ordinary temperatures. Then the larger, heavier molecules we find even further up will be solids at room temperature.

Parrafin is a type of wax. People use this word to describe wax paper. Wax paper is used for cooking or baking things. A good example would be Chocolate Chip Cookies. Parrafin is the common name for alkane hydrocarbons. It is an alternative name for kerosene as well.
Paraffin is a mixture of long-chain hydrocarbons, primarily alkane molecules. It is a white, waxy solid with various uses, including in candles, cosmetics, and as a waterproofing agent.
common name of paraffin oil?
The chemical compound consisting of carbon and hydrogen, commonly known as paraffin, belongs to a group of compounds called alkanes. These compounds have single bonds between carbon atoms, resulting in a straightforward, linear structure. Paraffin is widely used in candles, waxes, and as a fuel source due to its relatively inert nature.
The chemical formula for wax can vary depending on its specific composition, but it is generally a complex mixture of long-chain hydrocarbons, esters, and other compounds. The simplest form of natural waxes like beeswax is C15H31COOC30H61.
FI does not represent a known chemical compound. It is likely a code or abbreviation for something else.
The process of breaking down paraffin is called paraffin degradation. It involves breaking down the paraffin molecules into smaller components through chemical or biological means.
NHO3 is not a commonly known chemical compound. It could be a mistaken representation of a chemical compound, as it does not correspond to any known molecule.
Alkane.

Copper is a chemical element. It can be a compound but copper is usually known as a chemical element.
Impossible to answer because it is not a known chemical compound
I would need the specific compound name or formula to provide its corresponding number.
There is no chemical compound known to me as PG PR.
The chemical name for NaPO is sodium phosphate.
The chemical formula for francium is Fr and the chemical formula for arsenic is As.
Yes an No. there are a number of meanings associated with "paraffin" (all of which are compounds or mixtures of different compounds). I will make a link below to show you the meanings of paraffin.
Chemical compound is NaCl (Also known as salt or halite)
