2multiple correct

Which of the following compounds are saturated hydrocarbons?

Show answer

Methane (CH₄), Ethane (C₂H₆), Propane (C₃H₈)

Saturated hydrocarbons contain only single bonds between carbon atoms. Methane, ethane, and propane are alkanes with only single bonds. Ethene has a double bond, making it unsaturated.

3multiple choice

The property of carbon to form chains with other carbon atoms is called:

Show answer

Catenation

Catenation is the unique property of carbon to form long chains by bonding with other carbon atoms. This property allows carbon to form millions of different compounds.

4multiple choice
