What else can I help you with?
Is CH2 a subunit?
It can be, in long chain hydrocarbons as shown in the image.
A Protein is a long chain of what?
A protein is a long chain of amino acids. That are linked by dehydration synthesis to form peptide bonds.
Is wax reactant?
Wax is not a reactant in chemical reactions as it does not typically participate in reactions to form new substances. Instead, wax is a mixture of long-chain hydrocarbons that can undergo physical changes, such as melting, without undergoing a chemical reaction.
Is hydrocarbon poisonous?
Depends on the hydrocarbon : Hydrocarbon gases are asphixiants and can be narcotic. N-alkanes (straight chain hydrocarbons) up to about 10carbon atoms long have some toxicity, above that not so. Aromatic hydrocarbons vary greatly in toxicity depending on size and side chain placement. There is no "one size fits all" answer to this question.
What kind of polymer is wax?
Wax is a naturally occurring polymer called an ester, which is made up of long-chain hydrocarbons with a carboxylic acid group at one end. It is a solid at room temperature and becomes liquid when heated.
What is chain hydrocarbons?
A chain hydrocarbon has a long molecule containing only carbon and hydrogen.
Is CH2 a subunit?
It can be, in long chain hydrocarbons as shown in the image.
What is HFO?
Heavy Fuel Oil is what if refereed to as the heavies, is the long chain hydrocarbons in crude that can not be distilled at 350 F. The products includes greases, waxes, plastics, asphalts, tar etc. The HFO can be further process to separate the different products or can be cracked, a process that breaks the long chain hydrocarbons in to shorter chain hydrocarbons and distilled into LNG, gasoline, diesel, kerosene etc.
What makes wax?
cerumen glands
What is the difference between a short-chain and a long-chain hydrocarbon?
short chain hydrocarbons have a low boiling and melting point whereas high chain hydrocarbons have a higher boiling and melting point. Also, short chain hydrocarbons have a low density and higher ones have a higher density. :)
What element is in plastic?
Plastics are almost always made of long-chain hydrocarbons - consequently you will find hydrogen and carbon in plastics
What are the part of triglyceride?
A triglyceride is made of three long chain fatty acids (hydrocarbons) attached to one molecule of glycerol.
What are four parts of. triglycerides?
A triglyceride is made of three long chain fatty acids (hydrocarbons) attached to one molecule of glycerol.
A protein is a long string of?
amino acids form a chain called a polypeptide chain and form a protein
What give carbon the ability to form chain that are almost unlimited in length?
A carbon atom can bond to other carbon atoms The reason is because carbon has the ability to form into its self. Carbon has catenation power, which means it can form bonds with other carbon atoms, and this bonding of carbon in a long chain is called carbon chain. The compounds which form by the long carbon chain are known as organic compounds Carbon is in group 14 on the Periodic Table, which means it has 4 electrons in its outer shell. This means carbon has the ability to form up to 4 covalent bonds, sometimes with itself, thus we see 'latice' like structures form (diamond) which have incredible strength. This ability is similar in hydrocarbons and proteins, but not to the same strength which is seen with the 3D lattice affect. Hydrocarbon is a long chain of carbon atoms which have a repeating units.
Why cam carbon and hydrogen form so many hydrocarbons?
Carbon can form long chains and rings due to its ability to bond to other carbon atoms and hydrogen atoms, creating a variety of hydrocarbons with different structures and properties. This flexibility in bonding allows for the vast number of hydrocarbons that can be formed.
A Protein is a long chain of what?
A protein is a long chain of amino acids. That are linked by dehydration synthesis to form peptide bonds.
