NO!!! The longer chain alkenes are liquids and longer again to become waxy solids.

e.g. Margarine (artificial butter) is an alkene.

Soap has an alkene bond(s) in its long chain .

If the gas is colorless what are all of the possible substances it could be?

If its a pure elemnt O2, N2, and all of the inert gases Th list is very long for gases that are compounds, for example CO2, CO, all of the alkanes, alkenes and alkynes that are gases.


What are some examples of alkanes and alkenes?

Saturated oils and waxes are all types of alkanes and alkenes The Ice man ;) Call me ladies... ;')


Why alkenes are less reactive than alkenes?

Alkenes are less reactive than alkenes because the π bond in alkenes is stronger and less polarizable than the σ bond in alkenes. This makes breaking the π bond in alkenes more energy-demanding, leading to lower reactivity compared to alkenes.


What is an example of covalent?

Are alkenes electron withdrawing or donating?

Alkenes are electron donating.


What is the similitries between Alkanes Alkenes and Alkynes?

1.The first four (i.e. c1 to c4) members of alkanes are gases,c5 to c17 are all colourless liquids, and higher than c17 are all colourless solids . 2. They are insoluble in water but soluble in organic compounds. 3. They are lighter than water (less dense) and float on it. 4. They are bad conductors of heat and electricity.


Who found alkenes?

Alkenes were first discovered by the French chemist Théophile-Jules Pelouze in 1834. He isolated the first alkene, ethylene, by heating ethanol with sulfuric acid.


What are the key differences between terminal alkenes and internal alkenes?

Terminal alkenes have a double bond at the end of the carbon chain, while internal alkenes have a double bond located within the carbon chain. This difference in double bond placement affects the reactivity and properties of the alkenes.


What is the difference in acidity between alkynes, alkenes, and alkanes?

Alkynes are more acidic than alkenes and alkanes. Alkenes are more acidic than alkanes.


In Chemistry what does Alkenes mean?

Alkenes are hydrocarbons containing carbon-carbon double bonds. There are several different names for alkenes. Some examples are butane, pentene and octadiene.


What are unsymmetrical alkenes?

Unsymmetrical alkenes is molecule which is an pair of ligands. The molecule has doubly bonded carbon.
