Hexane is a colorless liquid hydrocarbon with the chemical formula C6H14. It is a highly flammable and volatile solvent that is commonly used in various industrial applications. Hexane is primarily derived from crude oil and is composed of six carbon atoms and 14 hydrogen atoms.
Hexane is known for its low boiling point and low viscosity, making it an effective solvent for dissolving and extracting various substances. It is commonly used as a cleaning agent, degreaser, and solvent in industries such as pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, textiles, and food processing.
In the laboratory, hexane is often used as a non-polar solvent for chromatography, extraction, and as a reaction medium for certain chemical reactions. It is particularly useful for separating non-polar compounds from mixtures.
However, it is important to note that hexane is highly flammable and can be harmful if inhaled or ingested. It should be handled with caution and used in well-ventilated areas or under appropriate safety measures.
