Alkenes have a double bond between the carbon atoms (C=C) whereas alkanes have a single bond (C-C). so alkenes are unsaturated compounds, add aqueous solution of Bromine or KMnO4 to both the compounds the decolourization of these reagents confirms the presence of alkenes.

What is the chemical formula for alkane which contains 125 carbon atoms?
The general formula of linear alkanes is CnH2n+2. If an alkane with 125 carbons exist (I don't know) the chemical formula will be C125H252 and the name pentacosehectane.
Chemical name for CH4?
Carbon tetrahydride; methane
Is the compound with the chemical formula C15H30 a member of the alkane series?
Alkanes have as general formula CnH2n+2 . C15H30 is therfore not an alkane it is an alkene (CnH2n) with one double bond.
What is the chemical formula for an alkane with 10 carbon atoms?
For a straight-chain alkane, this would be C10H22 - decane. However, if this is a cyclic alkane, you would have C10H20 (cyclodecane). There are also numerous options for a branching alkane with various names and carbon to hydrogen ratios.
What are real life applications of alkane?
Alkanes are primarily burned as fuel, but they can also be uses as precursors in chemical manufacturing.
What is the chemical formula for an alkane with fifteen carbon atoms?
C15h32
What is the molecular formula for a 18 carbon alkane?
This alkane is n-octadecane with the chemical formula C18H38.
What is a three carbon alkane with molecular formula C3Ho?
its is a bigraphic chemical within the industrialization between the crystalyzation of the neutrons chemically reacting with protons.
What is the chemical formula for alkane which contains 125 carbon atoms?
The general formula of linear alkanes is CnH2n+2. If an alkane with 125 carbons exist (I don't know) the chemical formula will be C125H252 and the name pentacosehectane.
Chemical compound also known as paraffin consisting of carbon and hydrogen?
Alkane.
Chemical name for CH4?
Carbon tetrahydride; methane
Is the compound with the chemical formula C15H30 a member of the alkane series?
Alkanes have as general formula CnH2n+2 . C15H30 is therfore not an alkane it is an alkene (CnH2n) with one double bond.
What do ethane and ethanol have in common?
Ethane is an alkane with the chemical formula C2H6. Ethanol is an alcohol with the chemical formula C2H5OH, corresponding to ethane.
What happens when a reaction take place between an alkene and alkane?
If alkene is straight chain and alkane has one tertiary carbon atom then alkylation of alkene takes place and a substituted alkane is produced.
When preforming the bromine test to distinguish between aromatic and alkene compound?
An alkane will react with the bromine test and become a clear/colourless liquid, while an aromatic hydrocarbon will not react with the bromine and remain a redish-orange tinged liquid.
What is the chemical equation of c3h8?
