Why is the number of hydrogen atoms in cylcohexane two less than in a hexane?

Cyclo prefix indicates that the carbons are not a straight chain but is in a circle. the bonds between carbons to form the circle requires 2 less possible bonds for hydrogen.

What is the greatest number of hydrogen atoms in the hexane if only carbon and hydroge make up the hexane?
14 hydrogen atoms.
How many hydrogen atoms are in hexane?
six
How many hydrogen atoms does cyclohexane have?
Since the chemical formula for Cycohexane is C6H12, it has 12 atoms of Hydrogen.
What does the hexane molecule look like?
Hexane is C6H14 and looks like 6 carbon atoms strung in a zigzag line with 2 hydrogen atoms attached at each carbon and an endcap hydrogen atom each at the ends of the chain.
How do you convert n hexane into benzene?
by removing 2 hydrogen atoms from C6H14(Hexane) to convert it into C6H12(Hexene;commonly called Bezene).
Is hexane polar or non polar?
Hexane is nonpolar. It consists of carbon and hydrogen atoms bonded together in a linear structure, resulting in a symmetrical distribution of electron density and no permanent dipole moment.
What would be the empirical formula of hexane C5H14?
The formula given is already the empirical formula, because its two subscripts, 5 and 14, do not have any common whole number factors except 1. - - - - - {Another contributor wrote: "That's true, but hexane is C6H14 - and there are still no common whole number factors." This comment is wrong, because 2 is a common factor of 6 and 14.} ------- The _chemical formula_ for hexane is C6H14. (This formula indicates the number of atoms of each element in one molecule of any of the _isomers_ of hexane.) The ratio of carbon atoms to hydrogen atoms in one molecule of hexane is 1:2. Therefore, the _empirical formula_ for hexane is CH2. Please see the links.
What is the number of hydrogen atoms present in 0.791 mole of ammonia?
The number of hydrogen atoms is 14,290540253661.10e23.
What is c-c?
The chemical that you describe looks like slightly hydrogenated coal. No petroleum derived hydrocarbon would have so few hydrogen atoms. With the addition of another 12 hydrogen atoms, you would have a hexane molecule.
What is the number of atoms for hydrogen?
Hydrogen exist as H2.It has 2 atoms in a molecule.
Why are ethanol and hexane miscible?
Methanol is immiscible in hexane because methanol is a polar compound due to the -OH group. Hexane is nonpolar because there are only carbons and hydrogen atoms. Polar substances cannot dissolve/mix with nonpolar substances. Think "Like dissolves like".
Does C6H14 has the maximum number of H atoms?
Yes, it does C6H14 is the saturated form called hexane.
