The next six alkanes are named pentane, hexane, heptane, octane, nonane, and decane. Their molecular formulas are C5HI2, C6H14, C7H16, CaHJg, CjH, and C10H22. The alkanes do not stop at the ten-carbon chain however. Since these first ten represent flammable gases and liquids and most of the derivatives of these... 

Nonane is a nine-carbon alkane and has a boiling point of 150.7°C, a flash point of 86°F, a flammable range of 0.8 to 2.9%, and an ignition temperature of 403°F. The structure and molecular formula for pentane are shown in Figure 5.32. 

The next six alkanes are named pentane, hexane, heptane, octane, nonane, and decane. Their molecular formulas are C Hjj, C H,4, CjH,. C H , CjHj, and CiqHjj. The alkanes do not stop at the ten-carbon chain however. Since these first ten represent flammable gases and liquids and most of the derivatives of these compounds comprise the vast majority of hazardous materials encountered, we have no need to go any further in the series. The general formula for the alkanes is C Hj ,.2. The letter n stands for the number of carbon atoms in the molecule. The nmnber of hydrogen atoms then becomes two more than twice the number of carbon atoms. Since there is more than one analogous series of hydrocarbons, you must remember that each series is unique the alkanes are defined as the analogous series of saturated hydrocarbons with the general formula C Hj +2. 

Note that the carbon atoms do not form a single line. This compound is an example of a branched-chain alkane. You can confirm that its molecular formula is CgH2o, the same as for nonane. However, the compound s structure and properties are different from those of nonane. How would you determine the name of this compound Chemists follow the rules below for naming branched-chain alkanes.
