Detailed Solution

Addition reactions with hydrogen take place in unsaturated hydrocarbons which are Alkenes and Alkynes. In general, alkanes and alkynes can be written as-
Alkenes: CnH2n
Alkynes: CnH2n2
The following are the necessary conditions for an additional reaction to occur:
1. The existence of multiple bonds (double and triple bonds) between carbon atoms in a hydrocarbon chain.
2. The hydrogen addition should take place in the presence of a catalyst, such as nickel or platinum.
Here is the chemical equation which would explain the mentioned process:
CH2=CH2 EtheneH2        Ni or Pt       CH3 -CH3Ethane
In the reaction which is mentioned above, the reactant is Ethene and the product formed is Ethane

The reaction which is mentioned also requires a lot of heat for the occurrence.
