Alkenes have general formula CnH2n, where n = number of carbons in chain.
Alkenes are unsaturated hydrocarbons that contain at least one carbon-carbon double bond.
Alkenes react with halogens to form haloalkanes through addition reactions.
What is a homologous series?
A homologous series is a group of organic compounds that have the same functional group and follow a similar structural pattern, with each member differing by a CH2 unit.
What is an alkane?
An alkane is a saturatedhydrocarbon (saturated means no double bonds).
