The best phrase to complete the sentence is "single bonds". A hydrocarbon molecule is considered to be saturated when the molecule contains single bonds. Alkanes are a saturated type of hydrocarbon. They only consists of hydrogen and carbon atoms in single bonds. The general formula is CnH2n+2. C4H10 is the molecular formula for butane. It is an example of a saturated hydrocarbon.
Electrophiles are positively charged or neutral species having empty orbitals that are attracted to an electron rich center. Examples of these are the Bronsted acid. Bronsted acid accepts an electron pair for hydrogen.
B.1,000
C.10,000
D.100,000
Answer:
For Edmentum/Plato users, the correct answer is A. 14.4%
b) elements with different boiling points
c) compounds with identical boiling points
d) compounds with different boiling point
Option-D (Compounds with different boiling point)
Compound is defined as a molecule which is made up of two or more different elements. All compounds are molecules but all molecules are not compounds, for example N₂, O₂, S₈, H₂, F₂ etc are molecules but they are not compounds.
Petroleum is a crude mixture of variety of hydrocarbons containing carbon and hydrogen as a primary elements along with other hetero elements like nitrogen, oxygen and sulfur etc. Therefore, these hydrocarbons can be termed as compounds because they are made up of atleast two essential elements like hydrogen and carbon.
Secondly, the process of distillation works on the basis of difference in boiling points of the compounds present in Petroleum. Therefore, compounds with lower boiling point will evaporate first and will separate first from the mixture and vice versa.
