Is methane is the only alkane?
No, there are many alkanes; methane is the simplest alkane.
Organic compound of carbon and hydrogen connected only by single bonds is an?
Alkane
How many isomers for dibromopropane?
There are two isomers for dibromopropane: 1,2-dibromopropane and 2,2-dibromopropane.
How many isomers in C2H4Br2?
This compound (dibromomethane) has only one form. It does not form isomers .
An alkane is defined by?
In Science an alkane is a paraffin, an organic compound and is a saturated hydrocarbon. Made up of only carbon and hydrogen atoms.
Is 3-methyloctane an alkane an alkene or alcohol?
3-methyloctane is an alkane because it consists entirely of carbon-carbon single bonds. Alkanes are hydrocarbons made up of only single bonds.
Is methane a 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'
What chemical series does methane belong to?
In chemistry, ethanol is a classified as an "alkane". It is also grouped as one of many "hydrocarbons", meaning it consists of only hydrogen and carbon atoms. It is also an "alcohol". I think ethane (alkane) and suffix of alcohol is how its name is derived.
Why is it that there is only 2 isomers of C3H7Cl?
Because the longest carbon chain in the molecule is three carbons long, there are only two possible structural isomers for C3H7Cl: 1-chloropropane and 2-chloropropane. The different positions of the chlorine atom on the carbon chain result in these two distinct isomers.
Are butane and isobutane substituted hydrocarbons if not what are they?
Butane and isobutane are both alkane hydrocarbons. They are not substituted hydrocarbons, as they contain only carbon and hydrogen atoms in their structure. Substituted hydrocarbons would have other elements or functional groups replacing some of the hydrogen atoms in the molecule.
Can molecular formula be used to show difference between isomers?
No, molecular formula alone cannot show the difference between isomers. Isomers have the same molecular formula but different structural arrangements of atoms. Additional information, such as structural formula or connectivity of atoms, is needed to differentiate between isomers.
What is the basic structure of an alkane?
The basic structure of an alkane is a straight or branched chain of carbon atoms with only single bonds between them. Each carbon atom is surrounded by hydrogen atoms to satisfy its bonding capacity. The general formula for an alkane is CnH2n+2.
