Answer: The correct answer is option C.
Explanation:
Alkenes are defined as a group of hydrocarbons in which a double bond is present between two carbon atoms. These are known as unsaturated hydrocarbons.
They are very reactive as they easily undergo addition reaction. This is so because, they have pi bonds which ca easily be broken.
Hence, they are not stable than alkanes.
Thus, the correct answer is option C.
