Chemistry what are liquid hydrocarbons? Asked by bookragstutor 13 years ago 8/20/2012 9:52 AM Last updated by anonymous 12 years ago 12/19/2012 9:41 PM
a hydrocarbon is a type of carbon that has hydrogen as the other component of its compound. These carbons are often calle 'saturated hydrocarbons' because their bonds are saturated with hydrogen. Most crude oil falls into this category.
