What piece of information do you need to determine whether a molecule is an alkyne or an alkene?

An alkyne contains a carbon-carbon triple bond while an alkene contains a carbon-carbon double bond.


If a molecule has 6 carbons and 12 hydrogens is it an alkane alkene or alkyne?

C6H12 may be an alkene or cycloalkane because both have the same general formula CnH2n .


What is the role of quinoline in the hydrogenation of alkynes?

Quinoline "poisons" the Lindlar catalyst, thereby enhancing its selectivity. This prevents the hydrogenation reaction from going from the alkyne to the alkane, and instead from the alkyne to the alkene.

Why alkyne has larger dipole moment than alkene?

Because in Alkyne,each C atom is sp hybridised(50% s character) and so has more electronegativity and hence more dipole moment.But in alkene, each atom is sp2 hybridised(33% s character) and hence lesser electronegativity

How many carbon-carbon double bonds are present in the molecule alkene?

It varies. An alkene is a homologous series that repeats itself. Like alkanes, the key feature of an alkene is the carbon-carbon bond. Alkane has a single bond, alkene has a double bond, and alkyne has a triple bond. So the answer is it depends on how many homologs are present.
