Question

What are hydrocarbons and what are its types..( 55points)

Answer 1

In organic chemistry, a hydrocarbon is an organic compound consisting entirely of hydrogen and carbon. Hydrocarbons are examples of group 14 hydrides. Hydrocarbons from which one hydrogen atom has been removed are functional groups called hydrocarbyls. 
There are several types of aliphatichydrocarbons: alkanes, alkenes, alkynes and alkenynes. Let's start with alkanes and cycloalkanes. Alkanes are linear, or branching, compounds that are made of varying numbers of carbon atoms that are all saturated with hydrogen atoms. ... Methane isthe simplest hydrocarbon possible.

Answer 2

$\color{red}\huge\boxed{HYDROCARBON}$

The organic compound containing only carbon and hydrogen are called hydrocarbons.
These are the same test organic compounds and are regarded as parent organic compound.

All other compounds are considered to be derived from them by the replacement of one or more hydrogen atoms by other atoms a group of atoms.

The major source of hydrocarbons is petroleum.
