The alkenes are a homologous series of compounds. They have a double carbon bond, meaning they are unsaturated. The alkenes have a formula CnH2n They are made when large alkanes from the fractional distillation of crude oil are cracked. Alkenes are much more reactive than alkanes as they have a double bond which reacts easily with other substances.
