Introduction
Hydrocarbons is an important chapter of Class 11
Organic Chemistry that deals with organic compounds containing only carbon
and hydrogen. This chapter includes the study of alkanes, alkenes, alkynes,
and aromatic hydrocarbons along with their preparation, properties, and
chemical reactions.
A strong understanding of hydrocarbons is essential for CBSE Board
examinations and for solving reaction-based and conceptual questions in
NEET and JEE (Main).
