Question

What is meant by organic compound and hydrocarbon compound ? State with General Formula of its type..

Answer 1

Explanation:

hydrocarbon :--

a compound made up of hydrogen and carbon only is called hydrocarbon

types of hydrocarbons

hydro carbons are of two types

saturated hydrocarbons and unsaturated hydrocarbons

Saturated Hydrocarbons

hydrocarbon in which the carbon atoms are connected by only single bond is called a saturated hydrocarbon. saturated hydrocarbons are also called alkanes.

general formula of Alkane is CnH2n+2

Unsaturated hydrocarbons

a hydrocarbon in which the two carbon atoms are connected by a double bond or triple bond is called an unsaturated hydrocarbon

unsaturated hydrocarbons are ofn two types :--alkenes and alkyne

General Formula of Alkenes is CnH2n

Genital Formula Of alkyne is

CnH2n-2

organic compound the compound of carbons are known as organic compound
