Alkynes are traditionally known as acetylenes, although the name acetylene also refers specifically to C < sub > 2 </ sub > H < sub > 2 </ sub >, known formally as ethyne using IUPAC nomenclature.

Alkynes are characteristically more unsaturated than alkenes.

Alkynes are usually more reactive than alkenes.

Alkynes characteristically undergo reactions that show that they are " doubly unsaturated ," meaning that each alkyne unit is capable of adding two equivalents of H < sub > 2 </ sub >, halogens or related HX reagents ( X = halide, pseudohalide, etc .).

Greasy soils, which are typified by hydrocarbons and fats ( esters of glycerol with long-chain organic acids ).

Alkanes ( also known as paraffins or saturated hydrocarbons ) are chemical compounds that consist only of hydrogen and carbon atoms and are bonded exclusively by single bonds ( i. e., they are saturated compounds ) without any cycles ( or loops ; i. e., cyclic structure ).

Saturated hydrocarbons can also combine any of the linear, cyclic ( e. g., polycyclic ) and branching structures, and they are still alkanes ( no general formula ) as long as they are acyclic ( i. e., having no loops ). They also have single covalent bonds between their carbons.

Most aliphatic compounds are flammable, allowing the use of hydrocarbons as fuel, such as methane in Bunsen burners and as liquified natural gas ( LNG ), and acetylene in welding.

Like other hydrocarbons, alkynes are generally hydrophobic but tend to be more reactive.

Plastics are made from fossil hydrocarbons, and carbon fiber, made by pyrolysis of synthetic polyester fibers is used to reinforce plastics to form advanced, lightweight composite materials.

Chemically, carotenes are polyunsaturated hydrocarbons containing 40 carbon atoms per molecule, variable numbers of hydrogen atoms, and no other elements.

Since they are hydrocarbons, and therefore contain no oxygen, carotenes are fat-soluble and insoluble in water ( in contrast with other carotenoids, the xanthophylls, which contain oxygen and thus are less chemically hydrophobic ).

Coal tars are complex and variable mixtures of phenols, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons ( PAHs ), and heterocyclic compounds, about 200 substances in all.

Oxygen is more electronegative than carbon, thus the hydrogens alpha to ethers are more acidic than in simple hydrocarbons.

Unsaturated hydrocarbons such as alkenes and alkynes are considered Lewis bases.

Hydrogen is the most common fuel, but hydrocarbons such as natural gas and alcohols like methanol are sometimes used.

SOFCs are capable of internally reforming light hydrocarbons such as methane ( natural gas ), propane and butane.

Aromatic hydrocarbons ( arenes ), alkanes, alkenes, cycloalkanes and alkyne-based compounds are different types of hydrocarbons.

The classifications for hydrocarbons defined by IUPAC nomenclature of organic chemistry are as follows:

# Saturated hydrocarbons ( alkanes ) are the simplest of the hydrocarbon species and are composed entirely of single bonds and are saturated with hydrogen.

If it were not for an old professor who made me read the classics I would have been stymied on what to do, and now I understand why they are classics ; ;

When I show up he will know you are a good wife to have told him about it ''.

And both in their objectives of non-discrimination and of social progress they have had ranged against them the Southerners who are called Bourbons.

But in our case -- and neither my wife nor I have extreme views on integration, nor are we given to emotional outbursts -- the situation has ruined one or two valued friendships and come close to wrecking several more.

Or else the North really believes that all Southerners except a few quaint old characters have come around to realizing the errors of their past, and are now at heart sharers of the American Dream, like everybody else.

and I have heard many say that they are content to earn a half or a third as much as they could up North because they so much prefer the quieter habits of their home town.

Of greater importance, however, is the content of those programs, which have had and are having enormous consequences for the American people.

I have just asked these questions in the Pentagon, in the White House, in offices of key scientists across the country and aboard the submarines that prowl for months underwater, with neat rows of green launch tubes which contain Polaris missiles and which are affectionately known as `` Sherwood Forest ''.

The experts are thus forced to hypothesize sequences of events that have never occurred, probably never will -- but possibly might.

Only one rule prevailed in my conversations with these men: The more highly placed they are -- that is, the more they know -- the more concerned they have become.

They are huge areas which have been swept by winds for so many centuries that there is no soil left, but only deep bare ridges fifty or sixty yards apart with ravines between them thirty or forty feet deep and the only thing that moves is a scuttling layer of sand.

The one apparent connection between the two is a score of buildings which somehow or other have survived and which naturally enough are called `` historical monuments ''.

Willard Thorp, in his new book, American Writing In The Twentieth Century, observes, quite validly it seems: `` Certain subjects are conspicuously absent or have been only lightly touched.

But, since they have rejected both narrative and emotional continuity, how are they to unify the impressive array of materials at their disposal??

They are in general those fears that once seemed to have been amenable to prayer or ritual.

In fact, although we have dispelled the fear, we have not necessarily assured ourselves that there are no dangers.

We have staved off a war and, since our behavior has involved all these elements, we can only keep adding to our ritual without daring to abandon any part of it, since we have not the slightest notion which parts are effective.

We are forced, in our behavior towards others, to adopt empirically successful patterns in toto because we have such a minimal understanding of their essential elements.

I have chosen to use the word `` mimesis '' in its Christian rather than its classic implications and to discover in the concrete forms of both art and myth powers of theological expression which, as in the Christian mind, are the direct consequence of involvement in historical experience, which are not reserved, as in the Greek mind, only to moments of theoretical reflection.

Our most elemental and unavoidable impressions, he says, are those of being involved in a large arena of powers which have a longer past than our own, which are interrelated in a vast movement through the present toward the future.

They are presumed to have plunged to a common grave in this fatal embrace.
