Date: December 6‚ 2012 Introduction Alkanes are hydrocarbons with only single bonds between the atoms. Saturated hydrocarbon is the other term for it. They are used as fuels because they are non-reactive and also do not conduct electricity. For this reason they do not form hydrogen bonds and are insoluble in solvents such as water while alkenes are hydrocarbons that contain at least one carbon-to-carbon double bond. Unsaturated hydrocarbons are the other term for alkenes. They are stable compounds

Hydrocarbons – Methane (Alkanes) Introduction to Hydrocarbons – Methane Carbons have the ability to form many different compounds. Compounds of carbon that only contain carbon and hydrogen are known as hydrocarbons. Most hydrocarbons naturally occur in the mixture crude oil. There are three main types of hydrocarbons‚ alkanes – saturated hydrocarbons made up of only single bonds‚ alkenes – unsaturated hydrocarbons with one or more double bond/s‚ and alkynes – unsaturated hydrocarbons with one or

compounds can be classified as hydrocarbons and hydrocarbon derivatives on the basis of their hydrogen replacements by other elements or by other group of elements (functional group).All hydrocarbons are insoluble in water because of their relatively non-polarity and easily distribute. When hydrocarbons burn using oxygen‚ C02 and H20 are the sole products. There are 2 large classes of Hydrocarbon namely: unsaturated and saturated hydrocarbons.Unsaturated hydrocarbons contains one or more carbon-carbon

RESEARCH PAPER ON BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY OF ACTINOMYCETES ................ ABSTRACT: The microorganisms are ubiquitous in nature. They are found in probably every environmental condition present on earth. Actinomycetes were originally considered to be an intermediate group between bacteria and fungi but now are recognized as prokaryotic organisms with high G+C (>55%) content in their DNA. Our project aim is to evaluate some biological activities of Actinomycetes like:

to dry‚ it gets hard again‚ but not like before. Without the air - it resembles plastic. Polystyrene is an aromatic hydrocarbon‚ it has several complicated double covalent bonds and is a chain of styrene molecules (C6H5CH=CH2) which is much unsaturated. Gasoline is made up of an assortment of simple aliphatic hydrocarbons such as ethane and isobutene and some aromatic hydrocarbons added as enhancers‚ as their break-up generates more energy. When you drop polystyrene into gasoline; the high energy

responsible for the largest amounts of natural gas (Foote et al.‚ 1988). In a petroleum system like the Smackover Formation‚ it is important for traps to be present so that the hydrocarbons are unable to escape. However‚ Locklin‚ 1984‚ page 41‚ makes a clear argument why "apparent Upper Jurassic reservoir rocks have not trapped hydrocarbons more frequently." He reasons that potentially “large faults have caused breaking of mineralized seals and created excessive fracturing along a fault plane‚ which allowed

Natural gas is composed of a wide range of hydrocarbon compounds that will condense to form liquids at particular temperatures. The more energy-dense‚ or “heavier‚” components can condense at operating temperatures and can cause operational problems within pipelines‚ compressors and other midstream equipment. These natural gas liquids (NGLs) also
