There are two molecules with the formula C3H6: propene and cyclopropane. Propene, CH3CH=CH2, is the monomer of the polymer polypropylene, which is used for indoor-outdoor carpets. Cyclopropane, shown below, is used as an anesthetic. Condensed structure of cyclopropane, C3H6. The structure consists of 3 CH2 groups single-bonded together in a ring. SMILES: C1CC1 When heated to 499 °C, cyclopropane rearranges (isomerizes) and forms propene with a rate constant of 5.95 × 10^−4 s^−1.
a) True
b) False
c) Depends on the temperature
