Alkenne
Alkenne are a class of organic compounds characterized by the presence of at least one carbon-carbon double bond. The general formula for an alkene with one double bond is CnH2n, where n is the number of carbon atoms. This formula indicates that alkenes have two fewer hydrogen atoms than their corresponding alkane counterparts, which contain only single bonds. The presence of the double bond significantly impacts their chemical reactivity, making them more reactive than alkanes.
The simplest alkene is ethene (C2H4), also known as ethylene. Other common alkenes include propene (C3H6) and
Key reactions of alkenes include hydrogenation, where hydrogen is added to form alkanes; halogenation, where halogens
