Answer:
Explanation:
Hydrocarbons are organic compounds composed of only carbon and hydrogen. The alkanes are saturated hydrocarbons—that is, hydrocarbons that contain only single bonds. Alkenes contain one or more carbon-carbon double bonds. Alkynes contain one or more carbon-carbon triple bonds.

The chemical property of hydrocarbons (carbon compounds consisting of only carbon and hydrogen) is largely determined by the presence of single, double and triple bonds.
Relevant examples:
1. Only alkanes (hydrocarbons with only single bonds between the carbon atoms) undergo substitution reaction.
2. Only alkenes and alkynes (hydrocarbons with double and triple bonds respectively) undergo addition reaction.
