Best Answer

The answer depends somewhat on the substance, but if it is suitable for infrared spectroscopy analysis and there are not interferences present, there are characteristic spectral lines for the carbon-carbon double bonds characteristic of alkenes. Nuclear magnetic resonance and/or Raman spectra should also work normally, but are much less widely available.
