large or long chain alkanes will burn with a sooty flame with more soot being produced the longer the chain. they also burn with a darker flame that is more orange than bright yellow (pentane) or blue (methane)
this is because with a long chain alkane (large alkane) their is more carbon and hydrogen present per molecule and so more oxygen is needed.
for example in complete combustion of methane compared with nonane, nonane requires 7 times more oxygen.
CH4 + 2O2 -> CO2 + 2H2O C9H20 + 14O2 -> 9CO2 + 10H2O
in reality nonane burns incompletely (unless an oxidiser is used which will provide more oxygen eg. KNO3 or NaClO3) and the oxygen required is not their so carbon and carbon monoxide is produced.
C9H20 + 14O2 -> H2O + CO2 + CO + C
it is impossible to tell how many mols of each product is created.
as less of the molecule has been burned less energy is released so more carbon is being produced and so is also a colder flame.
As it is colder their is less heat to excite the electrons in the carbon molecules so they in turn release less light energy resulting in the darkening of the flame and reddening of the colour.
this is also why gas burners must have adequate ventilation other wise their is not enough oxygen (as it has been burned) and so CO is produced which is poisonous.
take for example a candle and a lighter the lighter employs methane/propane and the candle uses a much longer chain hydrocarbon.
the candle burns with a yellow to orange flame.
the lighter burns with a blue flame at the bottom and a yellow flame at the top, the yellow flame is due to the oxygen running out at that point and so carbon is produced. (unless it is a turbo-lighter which sucks up extra air via a carburetter to create a perfect fuel and oxygen mix).
I do hope this has helped and not just confused you
For a straight-chain alkane, this would be C10H22 - decane. However, if this is a cyclic alkane, you would have C10H20 (cyclodecane). There are also numerous options for a branching alkane with various names and carbon to hydrogen ratios.
The generic formula for an alkane is CnH(2n + 2).Therefore, an alkane with 3 carbon atoms would have 8 hydrogen atoms.
In an alkane the number of hydrogen atoms is two greater than twice the number of carbon atoms. If we reverse this rule, we find that the number of carbon atoms is one less than half the number of hydrogen atoms. 32/2=16 16-1=15 So our alkane would have 15 carbon atoms. This alkane would be pentadecane or one of its isomers.
Alkanes are CnH2n+2, so for 5 carbon alkane, n = 10+2 =12 or 12 hydrogen atoms. It would be like this..CH3CH2CH2CH2CH3
Any number of chemical moieties could react with alkanes to produce new compounds in a substitution reaction. For example, hydrohalic acids (HCl, HBr, HI) could react with an alkane to produce a haloalkane. Here, the halogen atom would replace one of the hydrogen atoms in the alkane. (HCl + ethane --> chloroethane) (HBr + propane --> bromopropane) This also works with other reactive species, such as: - nitric acid + alkane --> nitroalkane
Planet to Solar system is a small body compared to a large body, While the tree is small, while a grove or a forest would be the large.
Small states didn't have the population numbers compared to the large so in any vote or situation they would always be out numbered by the large states.
The terms "small scale" and "large scale" are relative terms. Compared to a street map (typically 1:30000 or less) it is a large scale. Compared to a world map (1:10,000,000 or higher), it would be smaller. But because a 1:175000 does not show much detail (1 cm = 1.75 km), it would usually be considered a large scale map. It could be used for a metropolitan area highway map.

The number of strawberries in a quart would depend on the size of the strawberries. Small strawberries will have greater number compared to the large one since they have lighter weight individually.
