Hydrocarbons are basically the same thing. A hydrocarbon and a substituted hydrocarbon are similar because they are both sudo-noble gases(each carbon has 8 valence electrons and the rest have a full set of valence electrons).
To help you better understand:
A substituted hydrocarbon is just a hydrocarbon with at least one of the hydrogens replaced with one of the halogens-(Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, Iodine and Astatine).
When looking at a structural picture the easiest way to tell the hydrocarbons apart from the substitutes is a substitute will always have at least one double or triple bonds between the carbons.
Hope this helps!

What are the two most common lithologies for a hydrocarbon reservoir?
with one of the following is the most common method of improved recovery?
Is diamond is a hydrocarbon?
No. A hydrocarbon is a molecule that is made up of just hydrogen and carbon, as the name implies. Diamond is made of a "diamond lattice" of carbon atoms bonded together covalently, but contains no hydrogen. A common example of a hydrocarbon would be propane or methane.
Which hydrocarbon rings are most common in nature?
Rings with 5 or 6 carbon atoms
Is H3C--CH3 a functionalized hydrocarbon or hydrocarbon?
hydrocarbon
Is c6h6 a hydrocarbon?
C6H6 is this a hydrocarbon
