Understanding Heptane: Properties, Uses, and Applications
Heptane is a saturated hydrocarbon with the chemical formula C7H16. It is a branched-chain alkane, meaning that it has a side chain attached to the main carbon chain. Heptane is insoluble in water and has a low boiling point due to its large size and weak intermolecular forces. It is used as a solvent for various industrial applications and as a starting material for the synthesis of other compounds.
