The C-C bond in hydrocarbons are very stable, allowing carbon to form large molecules of countless varieties.
By comparison Si-Si bonds in silanes are weak and so such compounds are unstable.
Small hydrocarbons with only a few carbon atoms have low boiling points. This is because smaller molecules have weaker intermolecular forces, such as van der Waals forces, which require less energy to overcome compared to larger molecules with stronger intermolecular forces.
Hydrocarbons are organic compounds composed of carbon and hydrogen atoms. They are nonpolar, meaning they do not dissolve in water but are soluble in nonpolar solvents. Hydrocarbons can exist in different forms, including alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, and aromatic hydrocarbons. They are important sources of energy as they can undergo combustion reactions to produce carbon dioxide and water.
Polysaccharides may contain just a few simple sugars or thousands, as they are complex carbohydrates made up of long chains of monosaccharide units. Examples include starch and cellulose, which can consist of numerous glucose units linked together. In contrast, oligosaccharides contain only a few (typically 3 to 10) simple sugars. The diversity in structure allows them to serve various functions in energy storage, structural support, and cellular recognition.
Saturn actually has a very prominent set of rings. These rings are made up of countless small particles of ice and rock ranging in size from micrometers to meters. They extend outwards from the planet for thousands of kilometers.
No. Valley glaciers are a few miles to a few tens of miles long. Continental glaciers are hundreds to thousands of miles long.
No, a hydrocarbon is a compound that contains only hydrogen and carbon, air is a mixture that contains a few hydrocarbons.
Small hydrocarbons with only a few carbon atoms have low boiling points. This is because smaller molecules have weaker intermolecular forces, such as van der Waals forces, which require less energy to overcome compared to larger molecules with stronger intermolecular forces.

Most frogs lay thousands of eggs when they spawn but there are a few species that only have a few at a time.
Normally they are only a few hundred, but you can find some for free. Still, some can get into the thousands.
it depend on which yoyo contest it is. some can be a few hundreds or even to a few thousands few thousands.
That depends on the gene: some genes have only a few alleles, some genes have hundreds or even thousands of alleles.
They lay thousands of eggs, but only a few will survive. The eggs are common food for other predators in the ocean.
This is not true. Many thousands of people today can understand and read Egyptian hieroglyphics.
This would be impossible to say. There are thousands of ice formations ranging from a few feet high to thousands of feet high. You only every here about deaths on the highest mountains.
a lot! some players maybe only a few hundred dollors others into the thousands, deceased players can be in the hundred of thousands, worth more than other sports and celebritys
There are hundreds of "special" commemorative one-dollar coins. Their prices range from a few dollars to thousands. There are also a few that are "special" because only a few similar ones exist. These are usually valued in the hundreds of thousands of dollars. One could be "special" because your grandpa gave it to you. It is priceless.
