An example of highly unsaturated hydrocarbon is
C\(_2\)H\(_2\)
CH\(_4\)
C\(_2\)H\(_4\)
C\(_4\)H\(_{10}\)
Explicação
The unsaturated hydrocarbons are the alkenes and the alkynes. However, the alkynes are more highly unsaturated than the alkenes due to their Carbon-Carbon triple bond. Hence, C\(_2\)H\(_2\) is an alkyne
