Methane

Formula: CH₄

IUPAC ID: Methane

Molar mass: 16.04 g/mol

Boiling point: -161.6 °C

Methane is an odorless, colorless, flammable gas. It is used primarily as fuel to make heat and light. It is
also used to manufacture organic chemicals.

Ethene

Formula: C2H4

Molar mass: 28.05 g/mol

Density: 1.18 kg/m³

Boiling point: -103.7 °C

The simplest of the organic compounds known as alkenes, which contain carbon-carbon double bonds.
It is a colourless, flammable gas having a sweet taste and odour. Natural sources of ethylene include
both natural gas and petroleum; it is also a naturally occurring hormone in plants, in which it inhibits
growth and promotes leaf fall, and in fruits, in which it promotes ripening.

Propyne

Formula: C3H4

Molar mass: 40.0639 g/mol

Boiling point: -23.2 °C

Density: 530 kg/m³

Propyne is an alkyne with the chemical formula CH₃C≡CH. It is a component of MAPD gas—along with its
isomer propadiene, which was commonly used in gas welding.

Benzene

Molar mass: 78.11 g/mol

Formula: C6H6

IUPAC ID: Benzene

Boiling point: 80.1 °C

Benzene is a widely used industrial chemical. Benzene is found in crude oil and is a major part of
gasoline. It's used to make plastics, resins, synthetic fibers, rubber lubricants, dyes, detergents, drugs
and pesticides.

Trans-2-butene

Molar mass: 56.106 g/mol

Temperature: 146.35 °C. Pressure 40.2 bar.

Density: 232.81 kg/m³

Temperature: -185.35 °C. Pressure 0 bar.

trans-2-Butene can be used as a monomer unit to produce high molecular weight polyolefins with well-
defined microstructures by nickle-catalyzed polymerization reaction. It is also used as a reactant in the
isomerization reaction to produce the corresponding isomer using acid-activated catalysts.

Naphthalene

Molar mass: 128.1705 g/mol

Melting point: 80.26 °C

Boiling point: 218 °C

Formula: C10H8

Naphthalene is used in the manufacture of plastics, resins, fuels, and dyes. It is also used as a fumigant
insecticide that works by turning directly from a solid into a toxic vapor.

Vinyl Chloride

Formula: C2H3Cl

Molar mass: 62.498 g/mol

Density: 911 kg/m³

Boiling point: -13.4 °C

It's used to make polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pipes, wire coatings, vehicle upholstery, and plastic kitchen
ware. Higher than normal levels of vinyl chloride may be present inside new cars as the chemical
evaporates from new vinyl products.

Trichloroflouromethane

Formula: CCl3F

Molar mass: 137.37 g/mol

Boiling point: 23.77 °C

Density: 1.49 g/cm³

In industry, trichlorofluoromethane was used as a refrigerant, a substance used to provide cooling. It

was also used to make foam and as an active part of liquid-type fire extinguishers.
Trichlorofluoromethane harms the ozone layer, which protects the earth from the sun’s ultraviolet
radiation.
