(CC BY-NC-ND) Alkenes, hydrocarbons containing carbon–carbon double bonds in addition to carbon-hydrogen bonds, are abundant in nature and readily available. They are commonly utilized for preparation ...

For example, an alkene - a class of hydrocarbon molecules that have at least one double bond between two carbon molecules - can react with water in the presence of acid to form an alcohol.

Reaction of an alkene with aqueous potassium permanganate results in ... Add one or two drops of 1% bromine in dichloromethane to one sample of each hydrocarbon. Compare the rate of the reactions and ...

Complete combustion of alkenes produces carbon dioxide and water, provided there is a plentiful supply of oxygen. Incomplete combustion of alkenes occurs where oxygen is limited and produces water ...
