Here are some examples of hydrocarbons:
Chemical examples: Methane, ethane, propane, butane, pentane, hexane, etc.
Everyday examples: LP gas (cooking gas), petrol, candle wax, petroleum gel, some plastics such as those shopping bags and milk bottles are made of, acetylene (used for welding).

Example of an aromatic hydrocarbon?
Benzene, cyclic C6H6
What are short hydrocarbon chains useful for?
Those are gas compounds. We can use it as a fuel.
What is actively unsaturated hydrocarbon?
Hydrocarbon is a compound. Unsaturated hydrocarbon refers to the hydrocarbon containing at the least, a double or triple bond. Acetic acid is an example of a hydrocarbon.
Are hydrocarbons planar?
depends on the hydrocarbon methane for example is not and benzene is
Is alcohol a example of biomass?
No alcohol is a refined fuel, a hydrocarbon produced from sugars(carbohydrates).
Is diesel a hydrocarbon fuel?
Yes it is a hydrocarbon, called kerocene
What are the elements needed in the combustion reaction?
You need oxygen (O2) and some source of fuel. That source of fuel is usually, but not always, a hydrocarbon. For example the combustion of propane would be CH3CH2CH3 + O2 =>3CO2 + 4H2O.The complete combustion of a hydrocarbon will always result in CO2 and H2O.
Petrol is mainly composed of what?
petrol is a hydrocarbon fuel
What two reactants are necessary in order for a hydrocarbon combustion reaction to take place?
Hydrocarbon and fuel
What is in kerosene?
A light hydrocarbon used for aircraft fuel
What compound are found in fossil fuel?
Hydrocarbon :D
Can amber be used as fuel?
Amber is a hydrocarbon, and will burn.
Which energy source is most important in cars?
Hydrocarbon fuel.
What new substances are made when a fuel burns?
Carbon dioxide and water, assuming the fuel is a hydrocarbon.
Where does the energy come from when a fuel is burnt?
Hydrocarbon exothermic reaction with O2
What is an example of hydrocarbon?
Methane Or Ethane Or Butane Or Hexane
