Give one example of each of the following. i) Saturated hydrocarbon

1.	Give one example of each of the following. i) Saturated hydrocarbon ii) Cyclic compounds iii) Unsaturated hydrocarbon iv) Functional group v) Homologous series
Answer» i) Saturated hydrocarbons are Alkanes, So the examples are methane (CH₄), Ethane, (C₂H₆). ii) Cyclic compounds are cycle alkanes, eg : Cyclo propane (C₃H₆), Cycle butane (C₄H₆). iii) Unsaturated hydrocarbons are Aikynes, eg : Ethene (C₂H₄), Propene iv) The examples for functional groups are ‘ 1. Aldehyde – CHO, 2. Alcohol = OH v) A series of carbon compounds that differ by – CH₂ with similar chemical properties is called homologous series. eg: 1, Alkane, 2, Alkene

Answer»

i) Saturated hydrocarbons are Alkanes, So the examples are methane (CH₄), Ethane, (C₂H₆).

ii) Cyclic compounds are cycle alkanes, eg : Cyclo propane (C₃H₆), Cycle butane (C₄H₆).

iii) Unsaturated hydrocarbons are Aikynes, eg : Ethene (C₂H₄), Propene

iv) The examples for functional groups are ‘ 1. Aldehyde – CHO, 2. Alcohol = OH

v) A series of carbon compounds that differ by – CH₂ with similar chemical properties is called homologous series. eg: 1, Alkane, 2, Alkene
