Example includes methane(CH4),ethane(C2H6),propane(C3H8)........
Alkanes and its occurence:
-methane: natural, bio gas( bacterial decomposition)
-pentane: gasoline
-butane: fuel canister
-hexane: gasoline
-Propane: LPG, fuel
Alkane molecules are nonpolar.
Branched chained alkane
no.all alkenes end with 'ene' .methane is not an alkene cause it does not end with 'ene'.it is an alkane cause it ends with 'ane'
Yes. The alkane series is the series of saturated hydrocarbons with the formula CnHn+2 .
When one hydrogen is removed from an alkane it forms alkyl group
alkane
Alkane molecules are nonpolar.
No, there are many alkanes; methane is the simplest alkane.
Yes, if the alkane is cyclic and the alkene is not.
Branched chained alkane
No. Octane is an alkane but it has eight carbons.
No , it does not. Alkane react with ozone . Gil Tenne
In chemistry the cracking of a long alkane chain produces and alkane and an alkene.
no.all alkenes end with 'ene' .methane is not an alkene cause it does not end with 'ene'.it is an alkane cause it ends with 'ane'
Yes. The alkane series is the series of saturated hydrocarbons with the formula CnHn+2 .
The pharmaceutical use of alkane is often used in general anesthesia. Alkane is a compound of halothane which is a general anesthetic agent.
When one hydrogen is removed from an alkane it forms alkyl group
