Are alkenes saturated or unsaturated?
No, they are unsaturated as they contain double bonds
What chemical contains a carbon double bond?
These are unsaturated organic compounds.
What are compounds containing both hydrogen and carbon called?
Compounds that contain only hydrogen and carbon are called hydrocarbons. There are many of these, saturated hydrocarbons are termed alkanes, examples range from methane CH4 the smallest to polymers such as polythene (C2H4)n , others include the unsaturated hydrocarbons with double or triple bonds (alkenes and alkynes) such as ethylene C2H4, acetylene C2H2
How are substituted hydrocarbons and hydrocarbons different?
Hydrocarbons contain only hydrogen and carbon, whereas carbohydrates contain carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Carbohydrates, because they also contain oxygen, typically have more bonding variety.
Are alkenes hydrocarbons?
Yes, since hydrocarbons are compounds containing only carbon and hydrogen, and alkenes fit this description. More specifically, alkenes contain at least one C to C double bond (but no triple bonds) and their general formula is CnH2n+2
What contain carbon double bonds?
All the alkene hydrocarbons, all ketones and aldehydes, organic acid, carbon dioxide, and other compounds contain doubly bonded carbon atoms.
Are alkenes saturated or unsaturated?
No, they are unsaturated as they contain double bonds
Is 3-ethyl 2-methyl 1-pentene unsaturated?
Unsaturated hydrocarbons are hydrocarbons that have double or triple bonds between adjacent carbon atoms. Double bonded hydrocarbons are called alkenes & triple bonded hydrocarbons are called alkynes. Since the compound is a pentene, it is an alkene so it would have a double bond between the 1st & 2nd carbon atoms. Therefore it is unsaturated.
What chemical contains a carbon double bond?
These are unsaturated organic compounds.
What are saturated carbons?
Unsaturated carbon compound contain C=C. They can undergo addition reaction.

What does alcene mean?
In french, the "alcènes" are unsaturated hydrocarbons with a double covalent connection (between two carbon atoms).
What is the difference of alkanes and alkenes?
Alkanes are saturated hydrocarbons. Alkenes are unsaturated hydrocarbons with atleast one carbon-carbon double bond.
Do Saturated hydrocarbons Contain only single bond?
Saturated hydrocarbons contain only single bonds, such as hexane. Unsaturated hydrocarbons contain either double or triple bonds, such as hexene and hexyne.
What are saturated Hydrocarbons?
Saturated hydrocarbons have every possible bonding site on the carbon backbone that could bond to a hydrogen bonded to a hydrogen. All carbon-carbon bonds are single. These hydrocarbons are rigid and have high melting temperatures. Lard, Crisco, Butter, and Margarine are saturated.Unsaturated hydrocarbons don't and therefor contain one or more double or triple carbon-carbon bond(s). These hydrocarbons are "floppy" and have lower melting temperatures. Cooking and Salad oils are unsaturated.
