Best Answer

There are two isomers of butyne. Butyne has only four carbon atoms with a triple bond. The triple bond can ONLY be located between the FIRST and SECOND carbon atom or the SECOND and THIRD carbon atoms. (A triple bond between the third and fourth carbon atom is only a reverse of the first and second combination).

C---C-C-C 1-butyne (the same as C-C-C---C, just reversed)

C-C---C-C 2-butyne

Butene has the chemical formula of C4H8. All of the isomers of butene have double bonds between two of the carbon atoms.

There are 3 isomers, cis-2-butyne, trans-2-butyne and 1-butyne (assuming that the compound remains as an alkyne) also cyclobutyne is another

How is butene different than butane?

1) Bromination: add a drop or two of dilute bromine (Br2) to the sample, if the brown color disappears, it is an alkene, and...2) Baeyer's Test: add a drop or two of potassium permanganate (KMnO4) to the sample, if the purple color disappears, it is an alkene.hope that helped! :)
