    Pentane is a colorless, liquid hydrocarbon or alkane with the chemical formula C5H12. It is normally in liquid form at room temperature due to its boiling point of 35.95°C and melting point of -129.85°C. Pentane is commonly found in petroleum and can be obtained through fractional distillation. It has various industrial uses such as a blowing agent for producing polystyrene foam, a solvent in laboratory tests, and as an expansion agent in gasoline production due to its low boiling point and cost.
