Answer:
Explanation:
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
The general formula for a saturated hydrocarbon containing one ring is CnH2n. For most compounds, information beyond the chemical formula will be needed to elucidate their structure.
Common hydrocarbons:
- Methane(CH4)
- Ethane(C2H6)
- Propane(C3H8)
- Butane(C4H10)
- Pentane(C5H12)
- Hexane(C6H14)
Hope it's helpful to you :) :)
