Because no other arrangement of atoms is possible.

Isomerism is a phenomenon where compounds have the same chemical formula but different structural arrangements. Propane (C3H8) consists of three carbon atoms bonded in a straight chain with eight hydrogen atoms attached. Since there are no other possible ways to arrange the carbon atoms, propane does not exhibit isomerism.

Where can one find information about propane tank services?
Information about propane tank services can be found at SIS Propane, Propane 101, Temp Heat, Sparlings, Eagle Propane, Natural Handyman and True Point.
Is propane found in plants?
No, propane considered a volatile material and it derives from petroleum during oil and natural gas processing.
What does C3H8 tell about a molecule of propane?
The formula tells how many atoms of which elements are found in a molecule of propane. It indicates that there are 3 atoms of carbon and 8 atoms of hydrogen in a molecule of propane.
How do alkenes show geometric isomerism?
all the non terminal straight chain alkenes show the geometrical isomerism..
What are the four gases found in natural gas?
ethane methane isobutane propane
When was propane found?
Propane is a gas and usually is found by mixing natural gas and deposits of petroleum.
What is the another name of geometric isomers?
Geometric isomerism also known as cis-trans isomerism or E-Z isomerism
Is cis-trans isomerism included in geometrical isomerism?
The geometrical isomerism is mainly Cis-trans isomerism but in some cases we use another term Z and E isomers, they are almost same.
Where can one find information about propane tank services?
Information about propane tank services can be found at SIS Propane, Propane 101, Temp Heat, Sparlings, Eagle Propane, Natural Handyman and True Point.
Where can I find propane gas detectors and how much do they usually cost?
Propane gas detectors can be found in stores that carry building supplies. They can be found in the section of the store that also carries the propane tanks and heaters.
Why does a tetrahedral complex of the type MA2B2 not show geometrical isomerism?
For Geometrical isomerism the free rotation about the bonds should be restricted so a double bonded or cyclic compound may show the geometrical isomerism.
How many carbon atoms are found in the chemical formula of propane?
CH3-CH2-CH3 = PROPANE. there are there carbon atoms.
What company can I trust for good propane generators?
A good service for propane generators would be 'Propane Generators'. More information can be found online at their website http://www.propane-generators.com.
