Question

Give the structurao differences between sacturated and unsacturated hydrocarbons with example?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Saturated carbons are single bonded and have a greater compliment of hydrogen. ( hence, saturated )

Unsaturated carbons are attached to fewer hydrogen because has double or triple covalent bonds between the carbons.

They are called alkenes or alkynes

Saturated hydrocarbons have only single bonds and maximum hydrogen content.

If you pass hydrogen gas through the unsaturated hydrocarbons they will become saturated. And that is called hydrogenation. I know on ingredient labels they sometimes write that it has hydrogenated vegetable oil. That means that the regular vegetable oil is unsaturated and they saturated it.
