Alkanes
Alkanes (Product Code: SCI-391/162) is a laminated wall chart used to introduce the alkanes — the saturated hydrocarbon family — in organic chemistry classrooms and laboratories. At 70 cm x 100 cm it serves as a standing reference while students draw structural formulas and learn how the members of the series are named. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

What Is the Alkanes Chart Used For?
Alkanes contain only carbon–carbon single bonds and follow the general formula CnH2n+2, forming a homologous series in which each member differs from the next by a CH2 unit: methane CH4, ethane C2H6, propane C3H8, butane C4H10 and so on. Their names follow the number of carbon atoms, and boiling points rise steadily as the chain grows, which is why the first members are gases while longer chains are liquids and waxy solids.
Teachers use the chart when opening the organic chemistry unit, when teaching systematic (IUPAC) naming, and in lessons on the combustion of fuels such as LPG and natural gas or the substitution reactions of alkanes with halogens. Building the same molecules with a molecular model kit for organic chemistry beside the chart helps students see the tetrahedral arrangement around each carbon atom.
OEM Manufacturer
The Alkanes chart is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, the company behind the ScienceLab name, acting as OEM at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Organic chemistry charts and molecular models are dispatched from the factory to schools, colleges, dealers and importers, and quotations are prepared by the manufacturer itself.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the Alkanes chart teach?
The Alkanes chart is used to teach the alkane homologous series — saturated hydrocarbons with the general formula CnH2n+2 — together with their naming and properties. The listing does not detail every compound shown, so ask us to confirm the artwork if needed.
What size is the Alkanes chart?
The Alkanes chart is 70 cm x 100 cm, laminated and wall mounted. That size keeps structural formulas legible from the front of the class and lets the chart stay on permanent display in an organic chemistry laboratory.
Which classes is the Alkanes chart for?
The Alkanes chart is aimed at secondary and higher-secondary chemistry, where organic chemistry begins with hydrocarbons, and it also serves first-year college courses that review nomenclature and homologous series.
Can the chart be used with molecular models?
Yes. The Alkanes chart works well alongside a molecular model kit: students read a formula from the chart, then build the molecule to see its three-dimensional shape. Model kits are listed separately, so include them in the same enquiry if needed.
Who manufactures the Alkanes chart?
The Alkanes chart is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), which is the OEM and produces it at its own licensed factory in Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, for schools, colleges, dealers and importers.
Can I order the Alkanes chart for several schools?
Yes. The Alkanes chart can be quoted for a single laboratory or for bulk orders covering several schools, as well as for dealers and importers in India and international markets. Give the product code SCI-391/162 and the quantity.
