    Methane Ethane

    I am a colourless, odourless gas. I I am a colourless, odourless gas. I


    am a hydrocarbon with only one am a chemical compound with
    carbon atom. I am the principal formula C2H6. I am isolated on an
    component of natural gas, At room industrial scale from natural gas,
    temperature, I am a gas less dense and as a byproduct of petroleum
    than air. I am used directly to heat refining. My chief use is as
    homes and commercial buildings petrochemical feedstock for
    ethylene production.
    Propane Butane

    I am a three-carbon alkane, normally I am an unbranched alkane with 4


    a gas, but compressible to a carbon atoms and a formula of
    transportable liquid. I am derived CH3CH2CH2CH3. I am a highly
    from other petroleum products during flammable, colourless, odourless,
    oil or natural gas processing. I am easily liquefied gas.
    commonly used as a fuel for engines,
    barbecues, and home heating
    systems.

    Pentane Hexane

    I am a saturated hydrocarbon. I have Hexane is an alkane hydrocarbon


    a molecular formula of C5H12. I am a with the structural formula
    component of some fuels and am CH3(CH2)4CH3. My isomers are
    employed as a specialty solvent in largely unreactive, and are
    the laboratory. My properties are very frequently used as an inert solvent
    similar to those of butane and in organic reactions because they
    hexane. I exist in three structural are very non-polar. They are also
    isomers. common constituents of gasoline
    and glues used for shoes, leather
    products, and roofing.
    Heptane Octane

    I am a saturated hydrocarbon with 7 I am a hydrocarbon with 8 carbon


    carbon atoms. I am a colourless atoms and 18 hydrogen atoms. I
    liquid. I am undesirable in petrol, am a colourless liquid. I have 18
    because I burn explosively, causing structural isomers and am used as
    engine knocking, as opposed to a fuel.
    branched-chain octane isomers,
    which burn more slowly and give
    better performance
    Nonane Decane

    I am a saturated hydrocarbon and at Decane is an alkane hydrocarbon


    room temperature am a colourless with the chemical formula
    liquid. I contain 9 carbon atoms and CH3(CH2)8CH3. 75 isomers of
    am an ingredient in kerosene. decane exist, all of which are
    flammable liquids. Decane is one of
    the components of gasoline
    (petrol). Like other alkanes, it is
    nonpolar and therefore will not
    dissolve in polar liquids such as
    water.
