Combustion of a hydrocarbon in limited oxygen to produce water, carbon monoxide, and carbon (soot)

Combustion of a hydrocarbon in excess oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water molecules as the products

An unsaturated hydrocarbon that contains at least one carbon–carbon double bond

Hydrocarbon molecules that do not contain any double or triple bonds

Electrostatic attractions set up between the slightly positive end of one molecule and the slightly negative end of another molecule

A type of cracking reaction done using heat and a catalyst to break down long hydrocarbons into small products

Hydrocarbon molecules that contain one carbon–carbon double bond
