Carbon forms a large number of compounds because of its two unique properties formed many have long straight chains of carbon, branched chains of carbon or rings of carbon. In these compounds, carbon atoms may form single, double or triple covalent bonds. Compounds in which the carbon atoms are linked to each other by single bonds are called saturated carbon compounds whereas compounds having at least one carbon-carbon double or triple bond are called unsaturated carbon compounds. Compounds containing only carbon and hydrogen are known as hydrocarbons. Based on the above information, answer the following questions. What are saturated hydrocarbons? Give one example.

Atoms of eight elements A, B, D, E, F, G and H have the same number of electronic shells but different number of electrons in their outermost shell. It was found that elements A and G combine to form an ionic compound. This compound is added in a small amount to almost all vegetable dishes during cooking. Oxides of elements A and B are basic in nature while those of E and F are acidic. The oxide of D is almost neutral. Based on the above information answer the following questions: Which one of the eight elements is most likely to be found in gaseous state at room temperature?
