| 环烃 | huán tīng | cyclic hydrocarbon (i.e. involving benzene ring) | |
| 烯烃 | xī tīng | olefine; alkene (chemistry) | |
| 烷烃 | wán tīng | alkane | |
| 卤代烃 | lǔ dài tīng | haloalkane (obtained from hydrocarbon by substituting halogen for hydrogen, e.g. chlorobenzene or the CFCs) | |
| 链烃 | liàn tīng | chain hydrocarbon |
| 1 | Dr Keith calls this approach "carbon-neutral hydrocarbons". | |
| 2 | monocarboxylic acids, a suite of hydrocarbons that readily participate in chemical reactions; | |
| 3 | Like crude oil and natural gas, most petrochemicals consist mainly of carbon and hydrogen and are called hydrocarbons. | |
| 4 | The mechanism of hydrocarbon generation in carbonate rocks are studied by step heating extraction and simulation. | |
| 5 | But two pairs of scientists proposed in 2005 that alien organisms might live instead in bodies of liquid hydrocarbons on the frigid moon. |
