Octane number
• Straight chain alkanes have low octane numbers.
The greater the length of the chain, lower is the
octane number.
• Straight chain alkenes and alkynes, and also cyclic
alkanes
have higher octane numbers than their corresponding
alkanes.
• Branched chain hydrocarbons have high octane
numbers.
• Aromatic hydrocarbons have very high octane
numbers.
