Answer» pound made up of Hydrogen and carbon only is called HYDROCARBON(Hydrogen+Carbon= Hydrocarbon), e.g . CH4,C2H4,C2H2 etc._____________________✨:- An alkane is a hydrocarbon in which the carbon atoms are connected bt only single covalent bonds. Saturated hydrocarbons are also called alkanes. ✔️The general FORMULA of Alkane is CnH2n+2 .=============================✨:-Alkenes are unsaturated aliphatic hydrocarbons , which CONTAIN ONE double bond . Alkenes are also called olefins(oil Forming).✔️Alkene form a homologous SERIES having the general formula CnH2n.==================↓✨:- Alkynes are unsaturated aliphatic hydrocarbons which contain a triple bond I.e acetylene bond between two carbon atoms .✔️They have general formula CnH2n-2.====================→ |
