Answer:

In chemistry, an alkene is a hydrocarbon that contains a carbon –carbon double bond. The term is often used as synonym of olefin, that is, any hydrocarbon containing one or more double bonds.

Explanation:

Alkenes, also known as olefins, are organic compounds that consist of carbon and hydrogen atoms with one or more carbon-carbon double bonds in their chemical structure. Alkenes are unsaturated hydrocarbons. They are hydrocarbons because they are made of only carbon and hydrogen atoms, and they are unsaturated because they have one or more double bonds in their chemical structure

These two examples are chemical structures of alkenes that look like carbon chains that can have branches. Now, let's imagine attaching these carbon atoms to each other and closing them to form a ring. Here, we have another type of alkene called a cycloalkene, which has rings of carbon atoms bonded together, and within the rings, it contains one or more double bonds.
