Read the text and try to fill in the gaps according to the context The story of hydrocarbons The classes of hydrocarbons are alkanes, alkenes alkynes and arenes. Alkanes are hydrocarbons in which all the bonds are single bonds and they are characterized by the molecular formula C[n]H[ 2n+2 . ]Functional groups are the structural units responsible for the characteristic reactions of a molecule. The functional groups in an alkane are its hydrogen substituents. The simplest alkane is methane, CH[4] ; ethene is C[2]H[6] and propane is C[3]H8. Constitutional isomers are possible for alkanes with four or more carbon atoms. Thus there are two isomers of molecular formula C[4]H[10] .One of these has an unbranched carbon chain and is called butane; the other has a branched chain and is called isobutane. Isobutane is a common name. Cycloalkanes are compounds / hydrocarbons / alkanes in which a ring is present; their formula is C[n]H[2n] . 8.
