Additional Information:-

• Hydrocarbon is an organic compound consisting entirely of hydrogen and carbon. Hydrocarbons are examples of group 14 hydrides.
• Hydrocarbons are generally colourless and hydrophobic with only weak odours. Because of their diverse molecular structures, it is difficult to generalize further. 
• Hydrocarbon combustion refers to the chemical reaction where a hydrocarbon reacts with oxygen to create carbon dioxide, water, and heat.
• Hydrocarbons have very weak intermolecular forces called dispersion forces. Intermolecular forces hold molecules together.
• Hydrocarbons are the simplest type of carbon-based compounds. Hydrocarbons vary greatly in size, which influences properties such as melting and boiling points.
