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.
Is it possible for an alkane to be an isomer of an alkene?
Yes, if the alkane is cyclic and the alkene is not.
What happens when a reaction take place between an alkene and alkane?
If alkene is straight chain and alkane has one tertiary carbon atom then alkylation of alkene takes place and a substituted alkane is produced.
Is a 2-butene an alkane or an alkene or an alcohol?
2-butene is an alkene
What is an alkane in which a halogen atom replaces one or more hydrogen atoms on a carbon chain?
halo alkane or alkyl halides
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 kind of hydrocarbon is butane?
it is an example of an alkane (with four carbon atoms)
Is 3-methyloctane an alkane an alkene or alcohol?
alkane
Describe the polarity of alkane molecules?
Alkane molecules are nonpolar.
Is it possible for an alkane to be an isomer of an alkene?
Yes, if the alkane is cyclic and the alkene is not.
Is methane is the only alkane?
No, there are many alkanes; methane is the simplest alkane.
What is an alkane with one or more attached alkyl groups?
Branched chained alkane
Is Octane is seven carbon linear alkane?
No. Octane is an alkane but it has eight carbons.
Ethane with the chemical formula C2H6 is an example of?
An organic molecule An alkane A symmetric molecule
What reacts with an alkane in a substitution reaction?
Any number of chemical moieties could react with alkanes to produce new compounds in a substitution reaction. For example, hydrohalic acids (HCl, HBr, HI) could react with an alkane to produce a haloalkane. Here, the halogen atom would replace one of the hydrogen atoms in the alkane. (HCl + ethane --> chloroethane) (HBr + propane --> bromopropane) This also works with other reactive species, such as: - nitric acid + alkane --> nitroalkane
Can spraying alkane save ozone depletion?
No , it does not. Alkane react with ozone . Gil Tenne
What are the products of cracking?
In chemistry the cracking of a long alkane chain produces and alkane and an alkene.
