Since a hydrogen atom cannot make a double bonds ...... so a member of alkene series cannot have 1 carbon atom......
Similarly, a member of alkyne series cannot have 1 carbon atom......

Unsaturated hydrocarbons have double or triple bonds and are quite reactive; saturated hydrocarbons have only single bonds and are rather unreactive. An alkene has a double bond; an alkane has single bonds only.
