$\large\blue{Question:}$
Which of the following hydrocarbon under addition reaction:
$C_{2}H_{4}$,
$C_{2}H_{6}$

$\large\orange{Answer:}$
$C_{2}H_{4}$

$\large\pink{Description\: for\: Answer:}$
Unsaturated hydrocarbons (i.e., hydrocarbons having double or triple bonds) undergo addition reactions.

- $C_{2}H_{6}$(Ethane) is an Alkane and is an example of saturated hydrocarbon. It does not undergo addition reactions.

- $C_{2}H_{4}$ (Ethene) is an Alkene and is an example of unsaturated hydrocarbon. Being Unsaturated hydrocarbon, it undergoes addition reactions.

Therefore,
Among $C_{2}H_{4}$ and $C_{2}H_{6}$, $\orange{C_{2}H_{4}}$ undergoes Addition reactions.
