Alkanes are also saturated hydrocarbons. The distinguishing feature of an
alkane, making it distinct fromn other compounds that also exclusively contain carbon
and hydrogen, is its lack of unsaturation. Notice that the first four alkanes are gases
at room temperature, and solids do not start to appear until abou
C17H35. These forces will be very small for a molecule like methane but will increase
What do you think will be the boiling point of the next alkane, alkene,
and alkyne? Will the boiling point of each hydrocarbon be higher or
lower? Explain your answer.
