Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A compound that consists of only carbon and hydrogen atoms is known as a hydrocarbon.

For example, C_{5}H_{12} is a hydrocarbon and its name is pentane.

A hydrocarbon can have single, double or triple bonds. A hydrocarbon with double bonds is known as an alkene and a hydrocarbon with a triple bond is known as an alkyne.

A hydrocarbon does not have or contain an oxygen atom.

Hence, we can conclude that the statement no, a hydrocarbon contains only carbon and hydrogen atoms, is correct.
