The easement in gross is the counterpart to the easement appurtenant. An easement in gross is owned by a person in his or her private capacity and not in his or her capacity as owner of any particular parcel of property. Essentially, any easement that is not an easement appurtenant is an easement in gross.
Chemical structure of methane, the simplest alkane. In organic chemistry, an alkane, or paraffin (a historical name that also has other meanings), is an acyclic saturated hydrocarbon. In other words, an alkane consists of hydrogen and carbon atoms arranged in a tree structure in which all the carbon-carbon bonds are single. Alkanes have the general chemical formula CnH2n+2.
Alkanes belong to a homologous series of organic compounds in which the members differ by a molecular mass of 14.03u (mass of a methanediyl group, âCH 2 â, one carbon atom of mass 12.01u, and two hydrogen atoms of mass â 1.01u each). There are two main commercial sources: petroleum (crude oil) and natural gas.lkanes consist only of hydrogen and carbon atoms and all bonds are single bonds. Alkanes (technically, always acyclic or open-chain compounds) have the general chemical formula C n H 2n+2. For example, methane is CH 4, in which n=1 (n being the number of carbon atoms).
