ETHANE
Ethane is not an Alkene. Ethane is an Alkane and Ethene is an AlkeneAlkene always end in 'ene'Whilst alkane always end in 'ane'So dont get mixed up!! =D
Ethane is a saturated hydrocarbon of Alkane family of organic compound
alkane, hydrocarbon, organic
methane ethane propane butane
Ethane is an alkane with the chemical formula C2H6. Ethanol is an alcohol with the chemical formula C2H5OH, corresponding to ethane.
ethane is CH3-CH3, an alkane ethylene is CH2=CH2, an alkene.
C2H6, ethane, is a saturated hydrocarbon or alkane.

The general formula of linear alkanes is CnH2n+2; ethane, with the formula C2H6, is clearly a member of this family.
Ethene has a double bond and is an alkene whereas ethane has no double bond and is an alkane.
