Question

Mention four differences between saturated and unsaturated hydrocarbons. No spamming plz. ..​

Answer 1

Answer:

SATURATED HYDROCARBON:

1. They have single bonds between their carbon atoms.
2. They give clear blue flame while burning.
3. They undergo complete combustion.
4. They are easy to break.

UNSATURATED HYDROCARBON:

1. They have double or triple bonds between their carbon atoms.
2. They give a sooty flame with black smoke while burning.
3. They undergo incomplete combustion.
4. They are difficult to break.

Main Difference – Saturated vs Unsaturated Hydrocarbons

Hydrocarbons are organic compounds that contain only carbon and hydrogen atoms. Hydrocarbons are considered as parent compounds of many organic compounds. The main chain of hydrocarbons is made by the C-C bonds, and hydrogen atoms are attached to carbon atoms in the main chain. Based on the presence of single or multiple bonds between carbon atoms, hydrocarbons are classified into two groups namely; saturated hydrocarbons and unsaturated hydrocarbons. The main difference between saturated and unsaturated hydrocarbon is that saturated hydrocarbons contain only single covalent bonds between carbon atoms, whereas unsaturated hydrocarbons contain at least one double or triple covalent bond in the main chain. Saturated and unsaturated hydrocarbons show different characteristics because of these structural differences.
