Alkenes are less reactive then alkynes why?​

Answer:

Alkenes are relatively stable compounds, but are more reactive than alkanes because of the reactivity of the carbon–carbon π-bond. ... Because the carbon-carbon π bond is relatively weak, it is quite reactive and can be easily broken and reagents can be added to carbon.

Alkynes are usually less reactive than alkenes in electrophilic addition reactions because the π electrons are "held" more tightly in C≡C bonds then in C=C bonds. It is also more sterically difficult to form a bromonium ion from an alkyne (Figure 10.29) than from an alkene....

Hope it's helpful...❤
