Question

Identify the statement that is incorrect about albamas.

पर्याय

• They are hydrocarbons.

• There is a single covalent bond between carbon and carbon.

• They can go substitution and addition reaction.

• On complete combustion they produce CO₂ and H₂O.

Answer 1

They can go substitution and addition reaction.

Explanation:

Alkanes (intended by “albamas”) are saturated hydrocarbons that contain only single covalent bonds. Since all carbon valencies are fully satisfied, they only undergo substitution reactions under specific conditions and completely lack the double or triple bonds required to participate in addition reactions. The other statements are all entirely true for this class of compounds.
