Question

What are alkenes and explain

Answer 1

which carbon compound have 2 bond

Answer 2

Answer:

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

function of alkene

They are used in the production of many raw materials, including plastics. The number of reactions that can take place in the double bonded area of the alkene is staggering. The carbon to carbon double bond supplies the alkene with an electron rich source for further reactions.

Examples include Ethene(C2H4), propene (C3H6), butene (C4H8). Note that the name of alkene ends in suffix -ene.
