hydrocarbons. alkenes would be benzene not the other two, alkanes would be propane and not the other two, and benzene is an aromatic.

Acetylene is an alkyne.

Acetylene (IUPAC name: ethyne) is the simplest alkyne hydrocarbon, consisting of two hydrogen atoms and two carbon atoms connected by a triple bond. Because it contains a triple bond, acetylene is an unsaturated chemical compound.
