Alkanes do not have a double bond, thus they are saturated. This makes them the simplest form of hydrocarbon, containing only hydrogen and carbon atoms. They are not very reactive as they don't have a double bond which can open up and join on to other molecules.

Answer:

A related group of hydrocarbons is called the alkynes. These are unsaturated hydrocarbons that possess one or more triple-carbon bonds. They follow the same naming rule as the alkanes.

Find the percent composition of each element in KMnO4

VARVARA [1.3K]

The way you want to find the percent composition would be by breaking down the problem like so:

K= atomic mass of K which is 39.098
Mn = atomic mass of Mn which is 54.938
O= atomic mass of o which is 15.999

Then you want to add 39.098+ 54.938+ 15.999 and you get 110.035 which is the molar mass for KMnO

Then you want to take each molar mass and then divide it 110.035 and multiply by 100

Ex. K = 39.098/ 110.035 and the multiply what you get by a 100

You do this for the other elements as well good luck!
