Alkenes are unsaturated compounds, which makes them highly reactive. Most of these chemical reactions occur at the Carbon-Carbon double bonds. This makes alkenes far more reactive than alkanes.

Answer:
- Alkanes are saturated compounds.
- They are very less reactive, and behave inert towards acid, bases, oxidising and reducing agents at ordinary temperature.
- They react with halogens or nitric acid when heated.
- They mainly exhibit substitution reactions like halogenation and nitration.
- They also undergo thermal decomposition or pyrolysis and combustion.
