IMPORTANT

Compare the trends in boiling points of the homologous series of alkanes with the trends seen in the homologous series of alkenes.

Identify the apparent effect of having a double bond within a molecule. Suggest why this occurs.

MEDIUM

IMPORTANT

Alkenes and organic compounds with carbon-carbon triple bonds, called alkynes, are considered unsaturated.

Suggest the meaning of 'unsaturated' in this context. Why is unsaturated 'margarine' considered a healthy choice?

IMPORTANT

Alkenes and organic compounds with carbon-carbon triple bonds, called alkynes, are considered unsaturated.

Deduce the reactivity of alkynes compared with alkanes, given the following information: alkynes are not necessarily more reactive than alkenes with the same number of carbon atoms, but alkenes are more reactive than saturated hydrocarbons (alkanes) with the same number of carbon atoms.
