Lucy was found by Donald Johanson and Tom Gray on November 24, 1974, at the site of Hadar in Ethiopia. They had taken a Land Rover out that day to map in another locality. After a long, hot morning of mapping and surveying for fossils, they decided to head back to the vehicle.
Alkanes are an example of saturated compounds. An unsaturated compound is a chemical compound that contains carbon-carbon double bonds or triple bonds, such as those found in alkenes or alkynes, respectively. Saturated and unsaturated compounds need not consist only of a carbon atom chain.
Unsaturated hydrocarbons are compounds composed of carbon and hydrogen atoms, with one or more carbon-carbon double or triple bond in their chemical structure. Unsaturated hydrocarbons are commonly used in many industrial processes for the production of pesticides, fuel, paints, lacquers and more.
