the non-branched alkane is called n-pentane. other possible isomers are possible and are named according to their structures. for example, if we branched one carbon from the second carbon in the main chain the name would change to 2-methyl-butane.

∙ 11y agoIt's a pentane if it's configuration is a straight chain of carbons. If there are branches of carbons, though, it could be things like 2-methyl-butane, which has a CH3 group attached to the 2nd carbon in butane, so it still has 12 H's and 5 C's.

What is the physical state of the smallest alkanes at room temperature?
Alkanes with a carbon chain of 5 up to 17 are liquids. So the set of liquid alkanes begins with pentane, C5H12.
Explain why distillation is a good way to separate C8H18 and C5H12 liquids?
both of these are liquid hydrocarbons so have the same chemical properties therefore can not beseparated by chemical means by physical means their separation is not possible by filtration because both are miscible so only method to separate them is fractional distillation because they have different boiling points.
