SATURATED HYDROCARBONS ARE THOSE WHICH HAVE OR MAKE JUST SINGLE BOND BETWEEN THE CARBON ATOMS . THESE TYPE OF HYDROCARBONS ARE ALSO CALLED ALKANES .

UNSATURATED HYDROCARBONS ARE THOSE WHICH HAVE OR MAKE DOUBLE OR TRIPLE BONDS BETWEEN THE CARBON ATOMS THESE ARE ALSO KNOWN AS ALKENES AND ALKYNES .

OUT OF THESE TWO UNSATURATED HYDROCARBONS ARE MORE REACTIVE THAN SATURATED HYDROCARBONS AS UNSATURATED HYDROCARBONS ARE WEAKER THUS THEY ARE EASIER TO BREAK AND HENCE REACT FASTER

Hope it helps !!!!!!

kaushal62: can you answer me one more question of science
kaushal62: draw structural formulae of all possible isomers of compound with molecular formula C3H6O and also give electron configuration ?
Kanikashah: There are 2 isomers:
