For the hydrocarbons, they're compounds in which each homolog differs incrementally in their C and H-atoms and can be represented by generalized formulas, for example:(where "n" is a counting number).

The formula for linear alkane hydrocarbons is CnH2n+2

The formula for linear mono alkene hydrocarbons is CnH2n

The formula for linear mono alkyne hydrocarbons is CnH2n-2

They are other homologous series as well

In order to determine which homologous series a molecule is from, we must take notice of the name ending. For e.g. 'ethene' if from the homologous series called the 'Alkenes' because it has the same name ending i.e. 'ene.' Therefore 'propane' is an Alkane because it carries the same name ending i.e. 'ane.'

Why is no number used in the names ethene and propene?

The "ene" suffix in ethene and propene indicates that these are hydrocarbons with a double bond between carbon atoms. The positioning of the double bond is implied in the name by the number of carbon atoms in the molecule (ethyl for ethene and propyl for propene). This naming system follows the rules of IUPAC nomenclature for organic compounds.
