Question

why are certain? compound called hydrocarbon? write the general formula for homogeneous series of alkanes and alkynes and also so dram the structure of the first member for each series. write the name of the relation that conversation alkenes into Allan's and also write a chemical equation to show the necessary condition for the reaction to occur

Answer 1

Some compound are made up of hydrogen and carbon and thus are called hydrocarbons.
Alkanes have the general formula of CnH2n+2 where n is the number of carbon atoms. Alkenes have the general formula CnH2n. The general formula for alkynes is CnH2n-2.
