Answer :

A saturated hydrocarbon is one that is unable to hold any more Hydrogen atoms. This means the hydrocarbon is comprised only of single bonds, making the answer (1) 1

Answer:The correct answer is option (1).

Explanation:

Saturated hydrocarbon : These are organic molecule with no double and triple bonds in between two adjacent carbon atoms in the molecule.

In a saturated hydrocarbon, all carbons are comprised of four single bonds.

In a 1 single bonds there are two electrons which shared among among two atoms.

So, the number of pair of electrons are shared between two adjacent carbon atoms in a saturated hydrocarbon is 1.
