    Solution:

    The above statement is true.
    Hydrocarbons are compounds which are made up of hydrogen and carbon. Hydrocarbons are used as fuel due to their high calorific value. They burn in the air to produce lots of heat and light. Saturated hydrocarbons are burnt with a clean flame, while unsaturated hydrocarbons burn with smoke.
