0 any gas in a group that contains only carbon and hydrogen atoms, with the carbon atoms joined together in a simple chain:
1 any of a group of substances that contain only the elements carbon and hydrogen, which are held together by a single chemical bond
In this derivation the parameters were adjusted to produce accurate room-temperature enthalpies of vaporization and vapor pressures or densities of a set of solvated alkanes.
Utilizing methanol and ethanol as the primary organic precursors, catalytic reaction products observed include alkanes, branched-phenyl compounds, carboxylic acids, and methyl-esters.
The effects of species and sampling time on alkane concentrations were significant, accounting for 0.912 and 0.067 of the total variance, respectively.
Two methods were developed to dose the even chain alkanes that were used as external markers.
However, there is little published information on the effects of herbage species and animal live weight on faecal alkane recovery rates.
The effect of live weight on alkane recovery should be evaluated before further evaluation of other factors.
Typically, the site variance for odd-chain alkanes was smaller than for even-chain alkanes.
In the present experiment, the effect of sampling site on the alkane patterns was significant while the site variance varied depending on individual alkanes.
