These are compound out of many Carbon and Hydrogen atom,
In a single bonded and non cyclic carbon chain with as much as possible (= 'saturated with') single bonded H atoms to the C atoms.
Alkanes are saturated, so if the hydrocarbon has -ane at the end of it, it is saturated.
alkanes
The general formula of a saturated hydrocarbon is CnH2n+2, where n represents the number of carbon atoms in the molecule.
No double bonds. A saturated fat has hydrocarbon chains that are close together. An unsaturated fat contains double bonds in the hydrocarbon chains which makes a kink in the chain. This makes them sit farther apart and thus more liquid than saturated hydrocarbons.
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.
Alkanes are saturated, so if the hydrocarbon has -ane at the end of it, it is saturated.
Saturated hydrocarbon does not decolourise bromine water while unsaturated hydrocarbon decolourize it.
If a hydrocarbon C5H10 behaves as a saturated compound, it must be a cyclopentane. Saturated compounds contain only single bonds, and in the case of C5H10, cyclopentane is the only possible saturated hydrocarbon solution.
It is a saturated hydrocarbon because it contains no double bonds in its structure. The general formula for alcohol series is CnH2n+1OH. For example, structure of ethanol is as follows:- H3C-CH2-OH

what distinguishing characteristic is common in the names of saturated hydrocarbons?
The general formula of a saturated hydrocarbon is CnH2n+2, where n represents the number of carbon atoms in the molecule.
a hydrocarbon is an organic compound which has all its valence shells filled with single bonds.these include alkanes and cycloalkanes
Cycloalkanes are saturated hydrocarbons.
Through hydrogenation in the presence of the catalyst Pt/Pd/Ni .
No double bonds. A saturated fat has hydrocarbon chains that are close together. An unsaturated fat contains double bonds in the hydrocarbon chains which makes a kink in the chain. This makes them sit farther apart and thus more liquid than saturated hydrocarbons.
A hydrocarbon in which all carbon atoms are connected by single covalent bonds is a saturated hydrocarbon. This means that the carbon atoms are "saturated" with the maximum number of hydrogen atoms possible. Unsaturated hydrocarbons have double or triple bonds between carbon atoms, while aromatic hydrocarbons contain special ring structures like benzene. Substituted hydrocarbons have functional groups attached to the hydrocarbon chain.
