Distinguish between saturated and unsaturated hydro carbon with the help of combustion process
Anonymous:
Saturated compounds,carbon atoms are linked with each other using single bond., they undergo complete combustion and so produces blue non sooty flame.

Saturated Hydrocarbons burn with a clean blue flame.
Unsaturated Hydrocarbons Burn with an unclean sooty yellow flame.

on undergoing combustion, saturated hydrocarbon gives blue and non -sooty flame
for example- CH4 + O2 gives CO2 + H2O + heat +light energy
on undergoing combustion,unsaturated hydrocarbons give yellow and sooty flame
for example- 2CH triple bond CH {ethyne} +O2 gives CO2 + H2O +heat +light energy
saturated hydrocarbon will not decolorize the bromine water
unsaturated hydrocarbon will decolorize the bromine water
complete combustion takes place in saturated htdrocarbon.
incomplete combustion takes place in unsaturated hydrocarbon
for example- CH4 + O2 gives CO2 + H2O + heat +light energy
