They can be any one of the three under normal conditions, it depends on the molecular weight.
Lighter ones such as methane, ethane ethene, ethyne are gases.
Pentane hexane and heavier up to around C19 are liquids.
High molecular weight hydrocarbons above say C20H42 are waxes.

Hydrocarbon is a carbon dioxide but is also call hydrocarbon
Is H3C-C-CH2-CH3 A hydrocarbon or a functionalized hydrocarbon?
functionalized hydrocarbon
Why is methanol a hydrocarbon?
because methane is a hydrocarbon!
Does c6h14 have a double bond?
No, when it is a cyclo-hydrocarbon, Yes when it is an unsaturated hydrocarbon (decene)
How is a substituted hydrocarbon created from a hydrocarbon chain?
A substituted hydrocarbon created from a hydrocarbon chain is by replacing at least one hydrogen atom with an atom of another element.

Is hydrocarbon a secondary pollutant?
No. Hydrocarbon is a Primary pollutant.
Is rubbing alcohol a hydrocarbon?
No it is not due to having oxygen in it and the OH group. So ethanol is not a hydrocarbon.
Is CCL4 hydrocarbon?
Yes. CCl4 is the derivative of the hydrocarbon, CH4.
What type of hydrocarbon is DNA?
DNA is not a hydrocarbon. It is a nucleic acid.
Is butane the simplest hydrocarbon?
No. Methane (CH4) is the simplest hydrocarbon
