No, methyl is not an unsaturated hydrocarbon. It is a saturated hydrocarbon because it contains only single bonds between carbon atoms. Unsaturated hydrocarbons contain double or triple bonds between carbon atoms.


What is the term for an unsaturated hydrocarbon with at least one double carbon-carbon?

These are called alk'ene's, comparative to alkanes, the fully saturated hydrocarbons.There is also a special group of unsaturated (poly)-cyclic hydrocarbons, all with 6n carbon atoms: there generic name is ar'ene's: eg. benzene, naphtalene

Example of unsaturated hydrocarbon?

An example of an unsaturated hydrocarbon is ethene (C2H4), which contains a double bond between two carbon atoms. This double bond leads to fewer hydrogen atoms bonded to the carbons compared to saturated hydrocarbons like ethane (C2H6).
