Much appreciated.

C6H10 is aliphatic and contains one C=C bond

The C6H10 is an alkene with two double carbon to carbon bonds. The double bonds in this is the most electron rich site of the organic molecule, so when hydrogenated, this is where the hydrogens bond, and one the double covalent carbon bonds is broken, allowing two more hydrogens onto the structure, C6H12. Hope this is OK.

C6H10 can only be the unsaturated ring structure of a
cyclo-alkene (or cyclo-olefin) with one double bond: -
'Cyclo-hexene' ...cy-C6H10.
When hydrogenated, 2 H atoms replace the double bond to form the saturated, single bond structure for a cyclo-alkane: -
Cyclo- hexane ...cy-C6H12
Taking this further, Methyl cyclo-pentane is also C6H12

Hydrogenation of a compound is the addition of a molecule of hydrogen (H2) to another compound.
C6H10 +H2 = C6H12
Hexyne + hydrogen = Hexene

The carbon is in a ring. There are double bonds in the first molecule that are converted in the second

you probably converted cyclohexene to cyclohexane
