HYDROCARBONS AND ITS TYPES (Class 10th)

                            ♧HYDROCARBONS 
    
   ¤ A compound made up of hydrogen and carbon is called hydrocarbon.
  ¤ Types of hydrocarbons:-
  > Saturated hydrocarbon
  > Unsaturated hydrocarbon 
                 ☆SATURATED HYDROCARBON ☆
¤ A hydrocarbon in which the carbon atoms are connected by only single bonds is called a saturated hydrocarbon.
           >Alkanes is other name of hydrocarbon 
        > the general formula of saturated hydrocarbon or alkanes is CnH2n +2  where n is the number of carbon atoms in one molecule of the Alkane.
                   ☆USATURATED HYDROCARBON ☆
 ¤ A Hydrocarbon in which the two carbon atoms are connected by a 'double bond' or a 'triple bond' is called an unsaturated hydrocarbon. 
  > There are two types of unsaturated hydrocarbons:-
         ▪︎ Alkenes:-An unsaturated hydrocarbon in which the two carbon atoms are connected by a 'double bond' is called an alkene.
> The general formula of an alkene is CnH2n where n is the number of carbon atoms in its one molecule.
        ▪︎Alkynes:-An unsaturated hydrocarbon in which the two carbon atoms are connected by a 'triple bond' is called an alkynes.
> the general formula of alkynes is CnH2n -2 Where n is the number of carbon atoms in one molecule of the alkynes.
