2-ethylpentane as it the carbon carbon atom in the pentane backbone has four different groups such as -H, -CH3, -CH2-CH3 and -CH2-CH2-CH3.
The molecule is still an alkane because it does not have any double bonds and is made of just carbon and hydrogen.

No. An alkane is a compound of carbon and hydrogen. Carbon monoxide consists of carbon and oxygen.
any alkane consists of a string of carbon molecules with covalent SINGLE bonds between adjacent carbon atoms. The carbon atoms are then single bonded to two hydrogen atoms each, and the carbon atoms on the end of the chain that are only bonded to one other carbon atom each get 3 hydrogens. so an alkane with 2 carbons gets 6 hydrogen, an alkane with 3 carbons gets 8, an alkane with 4 carbons gets 10, etc. So the formula is CnH2n+2. This means if you have 'n' carbon atoms in the alkane, you have 2n+2 hydrogen atoms.

octet rule
The general formula of linear alkanes is CnH2n+2. If an alkane with 125 carbons exist (I don't know) the chemical formula will be C125H252 and the name pentacosehectane.
This alkane is n-octadecane with the chemical formula C18H38.
The generic formula for a non cyclic alkane is CxH(2x + 2).
C15h32
For a straight-chain alkane, this would be C10H22 - decane. However, if this is a cyclic alkane, you would have C10H20 (cyclodecane). There are also numerous options for a branching alkane with various names and carbon to hydrogen ratios.
Then the acyclic alkane hydrocarbon contains 2n+2 hydrogen atoms.
An alkane.
C10H22 It is a chain of 7 carbons, with a branch on the 4th carbon, that branch is 3 carbons long.
The generic formula for an alkane is CnH(2n + 2).Therefore, an alkane with 3 carbon atoms would have 8 hydrogen atoms.
