If a hydrocarbon has a triple carbon bond, it is an alkyne and ends with -yne. It has the formula CnH2n-2.
A saturated hydrocarbon is a hydrocarbon which has no double or triple bonds associated with it. In other words, it is a hydrocarbon which contains only single bonds.
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.
methane, ethane, propane, hexane .... these are some of the famous alkanes
Oxygen likes to form single or double bonds. However it does form a triple bond in the case of CO (That is the only triple bond occurance to my knowledge)
AN alkyne is a functional groups that is a triple bond between two carbon atoms.
A saturated hydrocarbon is a hydrocarbon which has no double or triple bonds associated with it. In other words, it is a hydrocarbon which contains only single bonds.
Saturated hydrocarbon cannot bond with compounds anymore, where as unsaturated hydrocarbons can bond, as they contain double or triple bonds. When they bond, the double and triple bonds break and new separate single bonds are formed with hydrogens or any other external compounds.
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.
As ethene contains double bond it is considered as unsaturated hydrocarbon. Note-hydrocarbon is said to saturated when it contain C-C single bond and hydrocarbon is said to unsaturated when it has carbon carbon double or triple bonds
methane, ethane, propane, hexane .... these are some of the famous alkanes
Saturated hydrocarbons with the general formula: CnH2n+2.
The name hydrocarbon means that the only elements in the compound are hydrogen and carbon. Unsaturated means there are double or triple bonds in the compound. Hydrogen atoms cannot form double or triple bonds, but two carbon atoms can. Thus unsaturated hydrocarbons must have a minimum of two carbon atoms.

no, pi bonds are only found in double and triple bonds. Sigma bonds are the ones in single bonds.
No; nitrogen can form single, double, or triple bonds.
An Alkene is a type of hydrocarbon that has at least one double bond. An Alkane is triple bond, because the bond is made up of five different elements. When this is created two of the weaker elements are destroyed (sulphur, magnesium) which corresponds with the answer.
