B - The reactants are the starting substances and the products are the end substances.
1) Hydrocarbon: CH3 - CH2 - CH2 - CH2 - CH3
2) Only single bonds => alkane => sufix ane
3) no substitutions
4) 5 carbons = > prefix penta.
Therefore, the name is pentane.
<span>I'm pretty sure it is called condensation</span>
Binary compounds consist of only two distinct elements, regardless of whether the compound is ionic or molecular. Water is a binary compound, as are calcium chloride, ammonia, and potassium iodide.
<span>An ionic binary compound consists of cations of one element and anions of another. KI is an ionic binary compound, composed of K cations and I anions. </span>
<span>A molecular binary compound does not consist of discrete ions, but of molecules. H2O is molecular, as is NH3.</span>
