### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Unsaturated Hydrocarbons**: - Unsaturated hydrocarbons are organic compounds that contain carbon and hydrogen atoms, characterized by the presence of at least one double bond (alkenes) or triple bond (alkynes) between carbon atoms. 2. **Identifying Reactive Sites**: - The reactive sites for addition reactions in unsaturated hydrocarbons are the carbon atoms involved in the double or triple bonds. - Specifically, the carbon atoms in a double bond are referred to as "olefin carbons," while those in a triple bond are called "reactive carbons." ...
