Solution

The correct option is C
A hydrocarbon is termed as unsaturated if it contains atleast one carbon-carbon double or triple bond.
For example- Ethene, Butyne, etc.
$C_{2} H_{6}$ , $C_{3} H_{8}$ , $C_{5} H_{12}$ are saturated hydrocarbon as they have only C-C single bond.
$C_{4} H_{8}$ is unsaturated as it has one carbon-carbon double bond.
