Actually all hydrocarbons are not alkynes, but all alkynes are hydrocarbons.

Alkynes contain carbon and hydrogen and hence they are known as hydrocarbons.

How can you identify a hydrocarbon is alkane alkene or alkyne?

You can identify a hydrocarbon as an alkane, alkene, or alkyne based on the type of chemical bonds it contains. Alkanes have only single bonds, alkenes have at least one double bond, and alkynes have at least one triple bond. Analyzing the molecular structure and types of bonds present in the hydrocarbon can help determine whether it is an alkane, alkene, or alkyne.

What is the iupac name of alkyne with formula c2h2?

According to the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry nomenclature this alkyne is called pentyne. Pentyne, C5H8 is a hydrocarbon found in reference to biochemistry and is characterized by it's triple bonded carbon on the molecule. The triple bonded carbon is what makes it an alkyne and gives it the suffix on its name: yne. The "Pent" on the name refers to the fact that there are 5 carbons involved in the structure thus giving it the "5" prefix (Pent).
