Explain the term – 'Hydrocarbons'. State the two main groups of hydrocarbons with examples. Draw a chart differentiating — 'Alkanes, Alkenes and Alkynes' — with respect to:

1. General formula
2. Characteristic bond
3. IUPAC and the common name of the first three members and condensed/branched/electronic structural formula of each
4. Availability of electrons
5. Reactivity
6. Characteristic reaction.
