Key Stage 4

Meaning

An unsaturated hydrocarbon is a compound containing only Carbon and Hydrogen atoms where there is one or more double bond between Carbon atoms.

About Unsaturated Hydrocarbons

Unsaturated hydrocarbons are called unsaturated because they do not contain the greatest possible number of Hydrogen atoms. This is due to the double bonds between Carbon atoms.
