OverviewIn organic chemistry, a hydrocarbon is an organic compound consisting entirely of hydrogen and carbon. With relation to chemical terminology, aromatic hydrocarbons or arenes, alkanes, alkenes and alkyne-based compounds composed entirely of carbon and hydrogen are referred to as pure hydrocarbons, whereas other hydrocarbons with bonded compounds or impurities of sulfur or nitrogen, are referred to as impure, and remain somewhat erroneously referred to as hydrocarbons. Hydrocarbons are referred to as consisting of a backbone or skeleton composed entirely of carbon and hydrogen and other bonded compounds, and have a functional group that generally facilitates combustion.
