What else can I help you with?
Why is no compound called methene?
There is no compound called methene since all aliens contain atleast one double bond between carbon atoms. The prefix meth suggests there is only one carbon and this carbon atom cannot double bond to itself.
What is the first member of the alkene family?
Ethene means it has two carbon atoms in it.but we know,alkene must contain double bond at least for once somewhere in the carbon chain.But hydrogen atoms dont form double bonds.so methene can't be the 1st member bcoz it can't formdouble bonds as there is no other carbon and only hydrogn atoms.so,ethene is the 1st member where it can form one carbon carbon doble bond with the two carbon atoms present.and there is no such thing as methene,i suppose.....
Does ethene have 2 carbon atoms?
Yes it does because it needs at least 2 carbon atoms to have a double bond. this is also why there is no methEne x
The molecule referred to as ''molecule A'' in the equation above is?
The one labelled "molecule A".
A group of atoms that act as a unit is called what?
A group of atoms that act as a unit is called a molecule.

Why can't you draw a structural formula for methene?
You can't draw a structural formula for methene because the prefix meth- means one carbon atom is present in the whole compound, and the suffix -ene means there is at least one double bond between only carbon atoms in the compound. If you added the other carbon atom necessary for the double bond it would change the name to ethene.
What is the name of this compound CH3?
It is Methene.
Why are there no compounds named methene?
The name "methene" is not commonly used because it would imply the presence of a carbon-carbon double bond, which is not the case. Instead, compounds with a carbon-carbon double bond are typically named using the suffix "-ene" in organic chemistry nomenclature.
What is methene?
Methene doesn't exist; it would have the formula CH2. This would be infinitely too reactive. Meth- means that there is one carbon atom present. But all alkenes have a carbon double bond so methene wouldn't be classed as an alkene even if it existed.

Is PH3 an element or molecule?
This is a compound, a molecule.
How does the shape of molecule affect the polarity of the molecule?
C.A molecule that has a symmetrical shape will be a nonpolar molecule.
How does the shape of the molecule affect the polarity of the molecule?
C.A molecule that has a symmetrical shape will be a nonpolar molecule.
Is an polar molecule an ion?
No a molecule is a molecule, polar or nonpolar.
Which molecule is formed from a molecule of glucose joined to a molecule of fructose?
lactose
