Methane ..... one carbon atom
Ethane ...... two carbon atom
Propane ...... three
Butane ...... four
Pentane ....... five
Hexane ...... six
Heptane ....... seven
Octane ...... eight
Nonane....... nine
Decane ..... ten

Explanation:
the length of the carbon chains in carbon compounds is different, their chemical properties are very much similar due to the presence of the same functional group in them.
The series of compound formed by Joining the same functional group in place of particular hydrogen atom on the chain having sequentially increasing length is called homologous series.
