Integrate in a scheme the structure, characteristics, nomenclature uses and effects in the environment of the main alkanes, alkenes, alkynes and cyclic hydrocarbons.
Procedure:
1. Complete the following table with similarities and differences in hydrocarbons.
2. From the table set examples of compounds in their condensed formula, naming them correctly.
3. Search for information about an alkane. Indicate where it comes from, its uses, effects in the environment and the way we can avoid negative impacts of this compound.
Results:

Characteristics
They can be in a straight-chain or can have branches. You have to search for the parent chain, the longest carbon chain that contains the double bond. You search for the parent chain, which contains the triple bond.
Its carbons are united forming a closed figure.
