methane series oor Sweeds

methane series

naamwoord

Paraffins. A homologous series of saturated hydrocarbons having the general formula CnH2n+2. Their systematic names end in -ane. They are chemically inert, stable, and flammable. The first four members of the series (methane, ethane, propane, butane) are gases at ordinary temperatures; the next eleven are liquids, and form the main constituents of paraffin oil; the higher members are solids. Paraffin waxs consists mainly of higher alkanes.(Source: UVAROV)

voorbeelde

Knowledge of the boiling points within the methane series would later be of significance for the oil industry.
Kunskapen om kokpunkterna inom metanserien skulle bli av betydelse för den oljeindustri som ännu inte tagit fart.

All compounds included in the methane series are called alkanes.
Alla ämnen som ingår i metanserien kallas alkaner.

Alkanes (methane series) until octane
Alkaner (metanserien) fram till oktan

The series starts with methane CH4 and continues with ethane C2H6, propane C3H8, butane C4H10, pentane C5H12 and so on.
Serien börjar med metan CH4 och fortsätter med etan C2H6, propan C3H8, butan C4H10, pentan C5H12 och så vidare.

Further, the times series 1990-2003 for methane emission will be updated.
Vidare har tidsserien 1990-2004 för alla dessa ämnen uppdaterats.
