The presence of double and triple bond in a compound is the sign of
Correct answer: A. Unsaturation
- A. Unsaturation
- B. Saturation
- C. Addition
- D. Substitution
Explanation
The correct answer is Unsaturation. Double and triple bonds in a compound indicate unsaturation, as they represent the presence of non-single bonds. This leads to a lower number of possible hydrogen atoms being attached to the carbon atoms. The other options are incorrect because they do not specifically address the presence of double and triple bonds as indicators of unsaturation.
