To classify: The substances as a hydrocarbon or a substituted hydrocarbon.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction: Hydrocarbons contain carbon and hydrogen atoms. Replacing one or more hydrogen atoms by other elements in a hydrocarbon, a new compound is formed which is called substituted hydrocarbon.
Ethyne has the chemical formula
Tetrachloroethene has the chemical formula
Ethanol has the chemical formula
Benzene has the chemical formula
Propane has the chemical formula
Acetic acid has the chemical formula
Conclusion: Ethyne, benzene and propane are hydrocarbons, whereas, tetrachloroethene, ethanol and acetic acid are substituted hydrocarbons.
