19 Αυγ 2021 · The first four alkanes are gases at room temperature, and solids do not begin to appear until about \(C_{17}H_{36}\), but this is imprecise because different isomers typically have different melting and boiling points. By the time you get 17 carbons into an alkane, there are unbelievable numbers of isomers!

17 Ιαν 2023 · Alkanes are a homologous series made up of saturated hydrocarbons (containing only hydrogen and carbon) which are joined by sigma (σ) bonds. They have a general formula of CnH2n+2. The electronegativities of carbon and hydrogen are very similar so the C-H sigma (σ) bonds are non-polar.
Properties of alkanes. Alkanes are organic compounds that consist entirely of single-bonded carbon and hydrogen atoms and lack any other functional groups. Alkanes have the general formula CnH2n+2 C n H 2 n + 2 and can be subdivided into the following three groups: the linear straight-chain alkanes, branched alkanes, and cycloalkanes.
Another effect seen in alkanes is that increased branching lowers an alkane’s boiling point. Thus, pentane has no branches and boils at 36.1 °C, isopentane (2-methylbutane) has one branch and boils at 27.85 °C, and neopentane (2,2-dimethylpropane) has two branches and boils at 9.5 °C.
The first four alkanes (up to butane, C 4 H 10) are gases at room temperature. Then you get liquids as the boiling points increase, and eventually solids when they get really big. You really need to remember that the first four are gases.
