Unlike saturated hydrocarbons in which all hydrogen atoms and carbon atoms are bonded together with single bonds, unsaturated hydrocarbons have double or even triple bonds between the carbon atoms. This makes unsaturated hydrocarbons even more reactive than saturated hydrocarbons, as well as have fewer...

Unlike saturated hydrocarbons in which all hydrogen atoms and carbon atoms are bonded together with single bonds, unsaturated hydrocarbons have double or even triple bonds between the carbon atoms. This makes unsaturated hydrocarbons even more reactive than saturated hydrocarbons, as well as have fewer hydrogen atoms bonded to the carbon atoms than saturated hydrocarbons have. Saturated have more number of hydrogen atoms when compared to its corresponding unsaturated hydrocarbons.
