Simply by observing the existence of the Cherenkov radiation from a particle, one can determine its relative velocity with respect to the light speed in medium. Knowing that, one can determine the particle momentum.
It is a ring formed carbon skeleton. The smallest possible cyclic hydrocarbon is cyclopropane (triangular C3H6) together with cyclobutane both being rather unstable (degration to linear propene and 1-butene). Five and six membered rings are quite common.
21 Experiment 5 â Reactions of Hydrocarbons Hydrocarbons are compounds that only contain carbon and hydrogen. Hydrocarbons can be classified further by the type of bonds they contain. If a hydrocarbon contains only single bonds, it is an alkane.If it contains one or more carbon-carbon double bonds, it is classified as an alkene. If it contains one or more triple bonds between two carbon atoms, it is an alkyne.ydrocarbons can be classified further by the type of bonds they contain.
