By adding suffix -ane to prefix that corresponds to the number of carbon atoms in the chain, hydrocarbons are named.
Straight chain alkanes are “saturated” hydrocarbons, which means they are completely filled up with hydrogen.
Straight chain alkanes are compounds with a non-branched backbone of carbon atoms.
In addition, as many hydrogen atoms as possible are attached to each carbon atom.
