Hexane and hexene are hydrocarbon compounds from different homologous series. the combustion of these two compounds produce different amount of soot. explain the difference based on the percentage of carbon by mass.

Percentage of carbon of alkene is higher compared to the alkane that has the same number of carbon per molecule. Because of this, combustion of alkene will produce more sooty flame compared to their corresponding alkane and because Alkenes have a higher percentage of carbon compared to their corresponding alkane.

Explanation:

Relative atomic mass : C= 12 and H=1

Percentage of Carbon Hexane (C6H14)

Percentage of Carbon = 83.7 percent

6(12) x 6(12) +14(1) x 100 percent= 83.7 percent

Percentage of Carbon Hexene = 85.7 percent

two years ago, when picking flowers in the mountains back of yosemite valley, i found a book. it was blotted and storm-beaten; all of its outer pages were mealy and crumbly. the paper seemed to dissolve like the snow beneath which it had been buried, however; many of the inner pages were well preserved. and although all were more or less stained and torn, whole chapters were easily readable. this is the condition of the great open book of yosemite glaciers today; its granite pages have been torn and blurred by the same storms that wasted the castaway book.
