Yes. The alkane series is the series of saturated hydrocarbons
with the formula CnHn+2 .
The hydrocarbon that contains five carbons is pentane. It is an alkane with the chemical formula C5H12.
Pentane
C5H10 can be both an alkane and an alkene. As an alkane, it would be pentane (C5H12), and as an alkene, it would be 1-pentene (C5H10). The presence or absence of a double bond in the molecule determines if it is an alkane or an alkene.
an Alkene as it contains a double bond and is unsaturated
The percent composition of C5H12 is: carbon (C) = 83.78%, hydrogen (H) = 16.22%.
The hydrocarbon that contains five carbons is pentane. It is an alkane with the chemical formula C5H12.
Pentane is an alkane; its formula is C5H12.
The correct nomenclature for C5H12 is "pentane." Pentane is an alkane with a straight-chain structure consisting of five carbon atoms. It can also exist in two isomeric forms: isopentane (or methylbutane) and neopentane (or dimethylpropane).
Pentane
C8H18 is an alkane because it is a saturated hydrocarbon. You can work it out by using the equation CnH2n+2 and if that works then its an alkane.The name of the reaction is "splitting" the octane, or "catalytic splitting" (bacause a catalyst is usually required to make the reaction happen).e.g. C8H18--> C5H12+ C3H6
C5H10 is the formula for a cycloalkane, specifically cyclopentane. C2H4 is the formula for ethylene, a linear alkene. C4H10 is the formula for a linear alkane, specifically butane.
C5H10 can be both an alkane and an alkene. As an alkane, it would be pentane (C5H12), and as an alkene, it would be 1-pentene (C5H10). The presence or absence of a double bond in the molecule determines if it is an alkane or an alkene.
Pentane is C5H12 The Structure is as follows. CH3-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH3
C5h12 + 8o2 --> 5co2 + 6h2o
an Alkene as it contains a double bond and is unsaturated
The percent composition of C5H12 is: carbon (C) = 83.78%, hydrogen (H) = 16.22%.
The molar mass of C5H12 is 72 grams/mole.
