What molecule is propene?

Propene is a linear hydrocarbon containing 3 carbons and 6 hydrogens. Two of the carbons are double bonded. Starting at the double-bonded end, you have two hydrogen atoms bonded to the end carbon, then a single carbon double bonded to the first carbon and with a single hydrogen bonded to it, then the third carbon is singly bonded to the second with 3 hydrogen atoms bonded to it.Propene is also known as propylene or methyl ethylene.

Do alkenes have double bonds between hydrogen atoms?

An alkene such as propene has 1 double bond. An alkene can also have many single bonds. In Dodecene for example there are 12 carbons. Two of the carbons are linked by a double bond and all the others by single bonds. In addition, the carbon-hydrogen bonds are all single bonds too.

What is propene used for?

The main uses of Ethene (common name ethylene) and propene (common name propylene) is in the synthesis of polyethylene and polypropylene. They are also used in the synthesis of other chemicals. Propene is used to make epoxy resins for example. Butane and pentane are used as fuels and also in chemical synthesis.

What are the different hydrocarbons called with different numbers of carbons?

First of all the basic different hydrocarbons are Alkanes, Alkenes , & Alkynes. Their names end in '-ane', '-ene' and 'yne', respectively. There are more complex hydrocarbons, such as Benzene(Phenyl) & 'Cyclo-', but for the moment I'll omit these. Next the number of carbons in the chain gives the basic name. Meth = 1 carbon Eth = 2 carbons Prop = 3 carbons Buta = 4 carbons Penta = 5 carbons Hexa = 6 carbons Hepta = 7 carbons Octa = 8 carbons Nons = 9 carbons Deca = 10 carbons So a hydrocarbon , with single bonds, and with two carbons is Ethane A hydrocarbons, with one double bond and three carbons is Propene A hydrocarbon, with one triple bond and four carbons is either But-1-yne or But-2-yne , depending on which carbon in the chain the the double/triple bond starts at. Petroleum/Gassoline is Octane. Benzene is a 6 carbon cyclic ring, with ,???three double bonds,. This a unique arrangement. Other cyclic hydrocarbons are ;- Cyclohexane , Cyclohexene. and Cyclohex-1,3-diene. There are many more. Hopefully that gives a little insight in to the nomenclature (naming system) of hydrocarbons; The IUPAC authority have designed the nomenclature so that the name gives all the elements, structure and position of the atoms in organic compounds.
