Butane (C4H10) is a saturated hydrocarbon (CnH2n+2) with 34 electrons and is the lowest member of the series to exhibit isomerism. The ground-state configuration is given by Au et al. (1993).

The molecule is nonpolar and has an electronic polarizability of 9 × 10−40 F m2 and an ionization potential of 10.53 eV. The dissociation ...
