Methane is the simplest hydrocarbon. It is a gas at room temperature and pressure. It is the main component of natural gas.<\/p>\n<p>Statement 2 is incorrect. Hydrocarbons do not support life directly as carbohydrates, proteins, nucleic acids. Carbohydrates, proteins, and nucleic acids are all organic compounds, but they are not hydrocarbons. Hydrocarbons are compounds that are made up of only carbon and hydrogen atoms.<\/p>\n<p>Statement 3 is correct. Benzene is an unsaturated cyclic hydrocarbon. It is a colorless, flammable liquid.
