Question 9 of 9Question 9
The following equations show cracking of a long hydrocarbon into a shorter alkane and an alkene. Which equation is correct?
CorrectIncorrect
How does cracking work?
Cracking breaks down large alkanes, meaning alkanes with very long carbon chains, into smaller alkanes as well as an alkene. Look at the example to understand how this happens. Notice that the equation for this reaction would be balanced since there is the same number of atoms of products as reactants.
