"Straight or Branched? A Deep Dive into Alkane Structures"

 International Chemistry Scientist Awards

Alkanes are a class of hydrocarbons composed exclusively of carbon and hydrogen atoms linked by single bonds. They follow the general molecular formula CₙH₂ₙ₊₂ and are also known as saturated hydrocarbons because all carbon atoms are saturated with hydrogen atoms. Alkanes are characterized by their non-polar nature, making them insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. They exhibit low reactivity due to their stable C-C and C-H bonds, undergoing reactions like combustion and substitution under specific conditions. Common examples include methane (CH₄), ethane (C₂H₆), and propane (C₃H₈), which are widely used as fuels and in industrial applications.
