An alkyne is an organic compound. An alkyne carbon chain has a triple bond.
There are many many different alkynes. I recommend researching 'alkyne' on Wikipedia or somewhere.

What are the general methods for the preparation of alkynes?
Well if you are referring to the general method to "synthesize" an alkyne, then the easiest way lets say you want ethylene ("ethyne"), the simplest two carbon alkyne, it would be obtained from adding KOH @ 200 degrees Celsius to 1,1-dibromoethane. The result is an internal alkyne, thus ethylene. In case you wanted an external alkyne you would the use NaNH2 @ 150 degrees Celsius. That is just basic, for it could get more complicated!!!
What is the ending if a hydrocarbon has only triple bonds?
If a hydrocarbon has a triple carbon bond, it is an alkyne and ends with -yne. It has the formula CnH2n-2.
What are alkyne-based compounds?
The alkyne-based compounds are usually characterized by the triple bonds.
