Organic chemistry is a branch of chemistry that focuses on the study of carbon-containing compounds, also known as organic compounds. These compounds are found in living organisms and have a wide range of applications in various industries.
Hydrocarbons are organic compounds that are composed of only hydrogen and carbon atoms. They can be found naturally in fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and natural gas, and are also used to make various products such as plastics and fuels.
Hydrocarbons are classified based on the type of bonds between carbon atoms, which can be single, double, or triple bonds. They can also be classified as alkanes, alkenes, or alkynes based on the presence and type of these bonds.
Saturated hydrocarbons have only single bonds between carbon atoms and are therefore considered to be "saturated" with hydrogen atoms. Unsaturated hydrocarbons, on the other hand, have at least one double or triple bond between carbon atoms and are not fully saturated with hydrogen atoms.
Hydrocarbons have a wide range of applications in our daily lives. They are used as fuels for transportation and heating, as well as in the production of plastics, pharmaceuticals, and other products. They also play a crucial role in the food industry, as they are found in fats, oils, and many other food products.
