The carbon of the carbon-carbon double bond is sp2hybridized. Take CH3CH=CHCH3 as an example: the C of the double bond is sp2 hybridized, cause the C has 3 bond pairs (2 single bonds+1 double bond).
The hybridization state of a carbon can be calculated by spn-1 ,where n is the no. of bond pair , and n is stand for a single bond or a double bond or a lone pair electrons.
Take CH2=NH as an example: both the N and the C is sp2 hybridized cause for the N, it has one single bond, one double bond and a pair of lone pair electrons.

Alkene always end in 'ene'Whilst alkane always end in 'ane'
So dont get mixed up!! =D

What alkene has the formula c3h6?
Yes. It is called hexane because of the six carbon atoms per molecule.

What is the difference between Ethane and Ethylene?
ethane is CH3-CH3, an alkane ethylene is CH2=CH2, an alkene.
What alkene has the formula c3h6?
Yes. It is called hexane because of the six carbon atoms per molecule.
Why alkene gives more soot than alkane?
Comparing ethane and ethene . there proportionally more hydrogens in ethane. Conversely there are proportionally more carbons in ethene. Ethane C:H:: 1:3 or 1/3 : 1 Ethene C:H :: 1:2 or 1/2 : 1 Since the fraction '1/2' > 1/3' then more carbon (soot).
