Read the following paragraph and answer the questions given below:

Rainbow is a beautiful natural phenomenon. It is the combined effect of dispersion, refraction and total internal reflection of light. It can be seen mainly after rainfall. Small droplets of water act as small prisms. When light rays from the sun enter these droplets it gets refracted and dispersed. Then there is internal reflection and after that once again the light gets refracted while coming out of the droplet. All these three processes together produce the rainbow.

Read the following paragraph and answer the questions given below: 

Carbon compounds contain many elements. The element hydrogen is present to a smaller or larger extent in majority of carbon compounds. The compounds which contain carbon and hydrogen as the only two elements are called hydrocarbons. Hydrocarbons are the simplest and the fundamental organic compounds. The smallest hydrocarbon is methane (CH4), formed by combination of one carbon atom and four hydrogen atoms. We have already seen the structure of methane. Ethane is one more hydrocarbon. Its molecular formula is C2H6.

The carbon compounds having a double bond or triple bond between two carbon atoms are called unsaturated compounds. Ethene and ethyne are unsaturated hydrocarbons. The unsaturated hydrocarbons containing a carbon-carbon double bond are called ‘Alkenes’. The unsaturated hydrocarbons whose structures contain a carbon-carbon triple bond are called ‘Alkynes’. Generally the unsaturated compounds are more reactive than the saturated compounds.

  1. What is meant by hydrocarbon?   (1)
  2. Name the smallest hydrocarbon.   (1)
  3. Define unsaturated compound.   (1) 
  4. Differentiate between Alkene and Alkyne.   (2)
