Chapter 6 – Hydrocarbons
Hydrocarbons covers organic compounds that contain only carbon and hydrogen. These compounds are classified into alkanes (single bonds), alkenes (double bonds), alkynes (triple bonds), and aromatic hydrocarbons like benzene. The chapter explains their general formulas, preparation methods, physical and chemical properties.
Students learn about important reactions such as substitution reactions in alkanes, addition reactions in alkenes and alkynes, and electrophilic substitution in benzene. The concept of Markovnikov’s rule, free radical mechanism, and aromaticity is also discussed. This chapter is fundamental for advanced organic chemistry and is highly important for CBSE board exams, NEET, and JEE preparation.
