thanks for helping me with the list. By checking the product's labels I'm finding many of the substances the problem now is that i found a product with hydrocarbon in it but I do not know how to figure out if its molecular mass is greater than 100g/mol
what is the name of the hydrocarbon?
the label on the spray bottle only says a mixture of hydrocarbons
I just found another bottle and says hydrofluorucarbon, is it useful?
Didn't Bob Pursley say gasoline was a hydrocarbon? Didn't he say vegetable oil was a hydrocarbon? Reread his reponse to your first post further down the board.
I will
help you determine if the molecular mass of a hydrocarbon is greater than 100g/mol.
To determine the molecular mass of a hydrocarbon, you need to know the molecular formula of the hydrocarbon. A hydrocarbon is composed of hydrogen and carbon atoms only.
If the label on the spray bottle simply says "a mixture of hydrocarbons," it doesn't specify the exact hydrocarbon present. In this case, it might be difficult to determine the molecular mass without further information.
However, you mentioned finding another bottle that says "hydrofluorocarbon." Hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) are a type of hydrocarbon that contain both hydrogen, carbon, and fluorine atoms. You can find the molecular mass of a hydrofluorocarbon by looking at its chemical formula. If you can find the chemical formula on the label, you can calculate the molecular mass by adding up the atomic masses of the atoms present in the formula.
Regarding Bob Pursley's response, he mentioned that gasoline and vegetable oil are examples of hydrocarbons. While this is correct, it's important to note that not all hydrocarbons have a molecular mass greater than 100g/mol. Hydrocarbons can vary in size and molecular mass depending on the number of carbon atoms and the presence of other elements like hydrogen, fluorine, etc.
In summary, to determine if the molecular mass of a hydrocarbon is greater than 100g/mol, you need to know the molecular formula of the hydrocarbon. If the label on the spray bottle only mentions a mixture of hydrocarbons without further details, it might be difficult to determine the molecular mass. However, if the label mentions a specific type of hydrocarbon like hydrofluorocarbon, you can find its molecular mass by looking at its chemical formula.
