A hydrocarbon chain that is bent is called a branched hydrocarbon chain. This means that the carbon atoms in the chain are not arranged in a linear fashion, but rather have additional side chains branching off.

Hexane is a straight-chain hydrocarbon, meaning it has a continuous chain of carbon atoms with no branches or side chains attached.
The longest continuous carbon chain of a branched-chain hydrocarbon is called the main chain or parent chain. It consists of the carbon atoms that form a continuous chain without any branching or side chains attached to it.

Typically the shorter the carbon chain, the LESS viscous the hydrocarbon. The longer the chain, the MORE viscous the hydrocarbon. For example consider the viscosity and molecular size in: Gasoline < Diesel < Motor Oil < Tar Viscosity increases with the molecular size and length of hydrocarbon chain.
The hydrocarbon chain with 14 carbon atoms is called tetradecane.
Petrol is called a hydrocarbon because it is primarily composed of molecules containing hydrogen and carbon atoms. The main components of petrol are hydrocarbons such as octane, which is a chain of eight carbon atoms bonded together with hydrogen atoms.

A substituted hydrocarbon is created from a hydrocarbon chain by replacing one or more hydrogen atoms with a different functional group, such as an alcohol, halogen, or nitro group. This substitution reaction can be achieved through various chemical reactions, such as halogenation, hydroxylation, or nitration, depending on the desired functional group to be added to the hydrocarbon chain.
The hydrocarbon with the formla C10H22 is Decane
Yes an aliphatic hydrocarbon chain with an OH group on is called an alcohol - if it is an aromatic hydrocarbon it can often be called a phenol
