double bonded hydrocarbons are called "alkenes" and triple bonded hydrocarbons are called "alkynes"
thatll happen but the meaning of the story is jhon posbey was the heart of the situation
No, when the carbon atoms in hydrocarbon molecules are bonded to as many hydrogen atoms as possible, a saturated hydrocarbon is produced. Unsaturated hydrocarbons have carbon-carbon double or triple bonds, resulting in fewer hydrogen atoms bonded to the carbon atoms.
Saturated hydrocarbons contain only single bonds, such as hexane. Unsaturated hydrocarbons contain either double or triple bonds, such as hexene and hexyne.
Cycloalkanes are considered saturated hydrocarbons because they only contain single carbon-carbon bonds, with no double or triple bonds present in their structures. This means that they have the maximum number of hydrogen atoms bonded to each carbon atom.
Compounds containing both hydrogen and carbon are called hydrocarbons. These compounds are the building blocks of organic chemistry and have a wide range of applications, from fuels like gasoline and natural gas to polymers like plastics and rubber.
Unsaturated hydrocarbons are hydrocarbons that have double or triple bonds between adjacent carbon atoms. Double bonded hydrocarbons are called alkenes & triple bonded hydrocarbons are called alkynes. Since the compound is a pentene, it is an alkene so it would have a double bond between the 1st & 2nd carbon atoms. Therefore it is unsaturated.
at least a double bond is an alkene at least a triple bond is an alkyne i believe...
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.

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.
In hydrocarbons, stability is primarily influenced by the type of bonding present. Covalent carbon-hydrogen bonds contribute to the overall stability of hydrocarbons. The presence of double or triple bonds can affect the reactivity and stability of hydrocarbons.
Think of this as H2C3H2 or HC3H3 As carbon is tetravalent and hydrogen is monovalent there must be either two hydrogens bonded to a carbon that is double bonded to another that is double bonded to the third which has the remaining hydrogens double bonded. Otherwise this must be a hydrogen bonded to a carbon that is triple bonded to another carbon which is single bonded to the third carbon which is bound to three hydrogens.
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).
