Saturated and Unsaturated Compounds

Saturated compounds (alkanes) have the maximum number of hydrogen atoms attached to each carbon atom

Unsaturated compounds have fewer hydrogen atoms attached to the carbon chain than alkanes

Unsaturated compounds contain double or triple bonds

Alkenes Carbon-carbon double bonds Names end in -ene

H2C=CH2 ethene (ethylene)

H2C=CH-CH3 propene (propylene)

cyclohexene

Alkynes

Carbon-carbon triple bonds Names end in -yne
