- Compounds of carbon having double bonds or triple bonds between their carbon atoms are called unsaturated compounds.
- The term "unsaturated" means more hydrogen atoms may be added to the hydrocarbon to make it saturated (i.e. consisting of all single bonds).
- The example of the unsaturated compound is alkenes and alkynes, as well as branched chains and aromatic compounds.
- Saturated hydrocarbons have the molecular formula CnH2n+2, where n refers to the number of carbon atoms, and can be any natural number.
- For example ethane
Additional Information
- Alkane - acyclic saturated hydrocarbon.
- Alkane consists of hydrogen and carbon atoms arranged in a tree structure in which all the carbon-carbon bonds are single.
- Alkene - any hydrocarbon containing one or more double bonds.
- Alkenes unsaturated compounds
- Alkyne - any hydrocarbon containing one or more triple bonds.
- Alkenes unsaturated compounds
