Best Answer

In alkanes, hydrocarbons with a name ending in"ane", all carbons are sp3 hybridized. these compounds have only single carbon-carbon bonds no double nor triple bonds.

Compounds containing carbons?

Each and every compound of carbon contains at least one carbon atom.


How many carbon atoms does propane have?

there are 8 hydrogen atoms present in propane. There is 8 hydrogen atoms in propane, Each carbon has a valency of 4, 4 bonds with other atoms. Hydrogen has valency of 1. the general formula for alkanes is CnH2n +2 (n means number of that atom.) so to find how many hydrogens there with, say, 50 carbons you would do CnH2n + 2= C50H102. :)


What is the hybridization of each atom in propenoic acid?

All three of the carbons in propionic acid are sp2 hybridized. The number four oxygen is sp hybridized while the number five oxygen is sp2 hybridized.


What is Dichlorine Oxide hybridization?

sp 3 hybridization of each Chlorine


How do you draw a hydrocarbon?

h=hydrogen c=carbon --h h h-- h-c-c-c-h --h h h-- This is propane so you put your carbons in, so, for propane 3, then you put a hydrogen on each end then one on each side of each carbon. hope this helps ;). The dashes are connectors exept for the ones on the hydrogens on the top and bottom.


How many carbon atoms are in the compound Dimethyl ether?

Chemical structure: CH3 - O - CH3 so 2 Carbons, one in each methyl group


Which molecule is propane?

imagine 2 carbon atoms bonded with 3 hydrogen atoms on each side this is for ethane and for propane imagine 3 carbon atoms bonded with hydrogen on each them.dont get confused by its molecular formula of C3H8


What is the hybridization of oxygen?

SP2 because there are 6 electrons off of oxygen, and each pair counts as "one" when calculating hybridization.


How many carbons are there in heptane?

Hept = seven. So 7 carbons are found in each molecule of heptane.


What is difference between propane and commercial propane?

The difference is the bonds between the first pair of carbons. A Carbon atom requires 4 bonds in a molecule. In Propane, the three carbons have 1 bond between each of them, and the rest of their bonds are used for hydrogen, resulting in a C3H8 molecule. In Propene, the first 2 carbons will have a double bond, resulting in 2 less hydrogens in the molecule, C3H6. The difference between alkanes and alkenes are that a double bond is shared between a pair of the carbon atoms. In pro-2-ene, this would be the 2nd and 3rd carbon sharing a double bond. In just propene, it's the 1st and 2nd.


How many hydrogen atoms are present in a hydrocarbon chain of five carbons joined to each other by single covalent bonds?

This compound would be pentane and would have 12 hydrogen atoms.


What is VSEPR central atom hybridization of c4h10?

There are 4 carbon atoms, which each individually act as a central atom since they are surrounded entirely by the hydrogen atoms. Each carbon forms 4 sigma bonds, therefore, each carbon atom has a hybridization state of sp^3.
