They are more reactive
due to the presence of
electrons in the double
or the triple bond, and
therefore undergo
addition reaction**.....how there is presence of electrons in unsaturated carbons but not in saturated compounds of carbon??

Explanation:
Unsaturated hydrocarbons are hydrocarbons that have double or triple covalent bonds between adjacent carbon atoms. The term "unsaturated" means more hydrogen atoms may be added to the hydrocarbon to make it saturated (i.e. consisting all single bonds). The configuration of an unsaturated carbons include straight chain, such as alkenes and alkynes, as well as branched chains and aromatic compounds.
