✓ Answer:
C
C2H4
C2H4 (ethene) is an unsaturated hydrocarbon because it contains a carbon-carbon double bond (C=C). A compound is called unsaturated when it has at least one double or triple bond between carbon atoms. C3H8 (propane) is an alkane containing single bonds, making it saturated. C4H10 (butane) is an alkane having only single bonds.
