| | ETHYLCYCLOPENTANE Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | Colorless liquid. | | Chemical Properties | Ethylcyclopentane is a colorless flammable liquid. | | Physical properties | 2.10(x 10-3 atm?m3/mol) at 25 °C (approximate - calculated from water solubility and vapor pressure) | | Definition | ChEBI: Ethylcyclopentane is a cycloalkane. | | Hazard | Flammable, moderate fire risk; flammable
limits in air 1.1–6.7%. | | Environmental fate | Chemical/Physical. Complete combustion in air yields carbon dioxide and water vapor.
Ethylcyclopentane will not hydrolyze because it has no hydrolyzable functional group. |
