Hydrocarbons are compounds made only of carbon and hydrogen. Alkanes are saturated, so they contain only C-C single bonds, while alkenes are unsaturated and contain at least one C=C double bond.
Step-by-step lessons covering Eduqas A Level Chemistry Hydrocarbons for A Level Chemistry. Each lesson works through exam-style questions in Component 1, Component 2 and Component 3 format. Build confidence with atomic structure, bonding and moles calculations early on, since these underpin the more demanding organic mechanisms, equilibrium and practical-analysis topics that dominate Year 2.
