Is Octane is seven carbon linear alkane?

No. Octane is an alkane but it has eight carbons.


How many hydrogens are present on an alkane with 20 carbons?

An alkane with 20 carbons will have 42 hydrogens. This can be calculated using the formula 2n+2, where n is the number of carbons (C) in the alkane. So for an alkane with 20 carbons, the number of hydrogens would be 2(20) + 2 = 42.


What is the chemical formula for an a alkane with 42 carbons?

The chemical formula for an alkane with 42 carbons is C42H86. It follows the general formula CnH2n+2, where n represents the number of carbon atoms in the alkane chain.


What is the name of the alkane having 5 carbons?

pentane


What is the formula of an alkane with 16 carbons?

The formula for an alkane with 16 carbons is C16H34. Alkanes have the general formula CnH2n+2, where n is the number of carbon atoms in the molecule.

Which of the hydrocarbons that contains five carbons?

The hydrocarbon that contains five carbons is pentane. It is an alkane with the chemical formula C5H12.


What is the formula for the alkane containing 100 hydrogens?

The alkane with 100 hydrogen would be C49H100.The 100 hydrogen will have 49 carbons attached.The carbons on the ends would have 3 hydrogen each so the hydrogen left are 94 so the Carbon in the chain can only have 2 hydrogen each.Therefore the no of hydrogen in between will have 47 carbons and two carbons on the end. 47+2 =49 carbons.


A substance containing carbon?

What would be the molecular formula for an alkane with 43 carbons?

Well... It seems to be C43H88 which is TRITETRACONTANE.Hope this helped!


How can one determine the systematic name for an alkane?

To determine the systematic name for an alkane, you need to count the number of carbon atoms in the alkane chain and use the appropriate prefix (meth-, eth-, prop-, etc.) to indicate the number of carbons. Then, add the suffix "-ane" to indicate that it is an alkane.


What is the name of the alkane having 3 carbons?

PROPANE. Structurally it is 'CH3-CH2- CH3'. NB #1 The 'prop' moiety indicates that there are three(3) carbons. #2 the 'ane' moiety indicates that it is an Alkane. NNB The root names from Latin for the given number of carbons in the chain are #1 ; meth #2 ; eth #3 ; Prop #4 ; But #5 ; Pent #6 ; Hex #7 ; Hept #8 ; Oct #9 ; Non #10 ; Dec NNB The functional groups are indicated by Alkane ; -Ane ( Single bond between two adjacent carbons) Alkene ; -Ene (Double bond between two adjacent carbons ). Alkyne ; -Yne (Triple bond between two adjacent carbons. ). e.g. PropEne ; CH2=CH-CH3 PropYne ; HC///C-CH3 The indicated capital letter is critical in the correct naming of hydrocarbons.
