What type of hydrocarbon is ethane?
Benzene is an aromatic hydrocarbon ring of 6 carbons with both single (sp) and double (sp2) bonding. Each carbon is bonded to a single hydrogen giving it the formula C6H6.
Does a hydrocarbon consist of four carbon atoms with one double bond?
It caN DO , PROVIDING THERE ARE NO OTHER ELEMENTS, EXCEPT HYDROGEN PRESENT. A hydrocarbon is any organic compound that contains carbon and hydrogen ONLY. So CH3-CH=CH-CH3 But-2-ene is a hydrocarbon. Similarly CH2=CH-CH2-CH3 Biut-1-ene is also a hydrocarbon. However, Butanol (CH3CH2CH2CH2OH) is NOT a hydrocarbon because it contains an oxygen atom .
What is an alkene?
Apex- A hydrocarbon containing a carbon-carbon double bond
Why is ethene the smallest unsaturated hydrocarbon molecule?
Ethene may not be the smallest what about ethyne? Ethene, ethylene, is C2H4 Unsaturated hydrocarbon molecules contain double or triple bonds. The smallest will either be ethene C2H4 with one double bond, or ethyne , acetylene, HCCH with one triple bond. Ethyne wins, it has 2 less hydrogen atoms making it the LIGHTEST. Look at the structures in wikipedia and work out which is physically the smallest. I still go with ethyne. Wikipedia Ethene Wikipedia Ethyne
A saturated hydrocarbon is an organic compound which contains hydrogen and carbon joined?
The bond is covalent; the meaning of saturated is a single bond between carbon atoms (C-C).
Molecules consisting of only carbon and hydrogen are called?
A hydrocarbon with a double bond

What do hydrogen and carbon make?
Organic compounds are formed from carbon and hydrogen though sometimes there may be additional elements like oxygen, sulphur etc.carbon and hydrogen generally make hydrocarbon.hydrocarbons are also organic compounds.hydrocarbons are classified as alkanes , alkenes & alkynes.best example for hydrocarbon is methane...
A saturated hydrocarbon is an organic compound which contains hydrogen and carbon joined?
The bond is covalent; the meaning of saturated is a single bond between carbon atoms (C-C).
A saturated straight-chain hydrocarbon with two carbons is?
Saturated hydrocarbon means that it does not have triple or double bonds between carbon atoms. An unsaturated hydrocarbon will have triple or double, or both types of bonds between carbons. You can saturate the unsaturated hydrocarbon by adding hydrogen atoms through a given reaction. -CH=CH- + H2 -----> -CH2-CH2- Saturation does not have to be with hydrogen, it can be with chlorine, Cl2, for example.
What structural feature causes a hydrocarbon to be unsaturated?
When one carbon in the hydrocarbon molecule has formed a double (or triple) bond with an adjacent carbon.
What is the term for unsaturated hydrocarbon with at least one double carbon-carbon bond?
alkene
Why must unsaturated hydrocarbons have a minimum of two carbons?
The name hydrocarbon means that the only elements in the compound are hydrogen and carbon. Unsaturated means there are double or triple bonds in the compound. Hydrogen atoms cannot form double or triple bonds, but two carbon atoms can. Thus unsaturated hydrocarbons must have a minimum of two carbon atoms.
Is C12H22 saturated or unsaturated?
The basis for its saturation is a hydrocarbon with the general formula:- CnH2n+2 If a compound does not satisfy this, then it is unsaturated. Thus here 'n' = 12 Thus with 12 Carbon atoms present in the molecule, to be saturated, would need 26 Hydrogen atoms (C12H26). C12H22 is therefore unsaturated and will have 4 Carbon to Carbon double bonds in it.
