The chemical formula for cyclohexane is C6H12 - It is not an equation, as by definition an equation would need two things that equate to each other (For example 2H2 + O2 --> 2H2O would be a chemical equation as each side is balanced). Cyclohexane is a hexagonal ring-shaped structure.

The aromatic hydrocarbon of cyclohexane, of molecular formula C6H12 can combust to release heat and carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O). The reaction of cyclohexane combustion is: 9O2+ C6H12 = 6H20 + 6CO2 + Heat

The molecular formula for cyclohexane is C6H12. Cyclohexane is a cycloalkane compound meaning it is a alkane compound whose carbon atoms are joined in rings. The structure of cyclohexane is a hexagon ring of bonded carbon atoms (six bonded carbons) encased by 12 hydrogen atoms (each carbon atom being bonded with two hydrogens).

The empirical formula for cyclohexane is CH2. The molecular formula of cyclohexane is C6H12. Since an empirical formula gives only the proportions of elements present in a compound but not the actual numbers or arrangement of atoms the formula is CH2.

ch2, this is because in a ring structure(cyclo) there are 6 carbon atoms each with a valency of 4 hence only 2 hydrogen atoms can join to each carbon atom therefore the molecular formula is c6h12 so the empirical formuoa is ch2
