meth, eth and prop.

~~anol and ane.~~

~~There's six right there.~~

edit 0 : I'm wrong, anols need alcohol and hydrocarbons are things with JUST hydrogen and carbon, not any organic hydrogen carbon compound.

edit 1 : butane ..... nylon?

edit 2 : not nylon...shit...

edit 3: heptane? I thought about pentante but thought against it because of propane, hexane is in the post above...

edit 4 : yeah! Mr white, science, bitch! I haven't been to chemistry class for about 20 years, so it took me a while.
