Weak Brønsted acids such as water (pKa = 15.7) and acetic acid (pKa = 4.75) do not normally add to alkenes. However, the addition of a strong acid serves to catalyze the addition of water, and in this way alcohols may be prepared from alkenes.

Alkenes area class of HYDROCARBONS which contain only carbon and hydrogen. Two other terms which describe alkenes are unsaturated and olefins. ... Alkenes are also called OLEFINS because they form oily liquids on reaction with chlorine gas.

Alkenes - a class of hydrocarbons that contain carbon - carbon double bonds. The general formula for noncyclic alkenes that contain a only one double bond is CnH2n. Alkene names end with the suffix -ene. The prefix depends on the number of carbons in the chain (click here for the prefix table).

Open chain alkenes with one double bond have the general formula, CnH2n, where n equals the number of carbon atoms. Open chain alkynes with one triple bond have the general formula, CnH2n - 2. Like the alkanes and other hydrocarbons, they are insoluble in water and are flammable.

Aliphatic hydrocarbons with one double bond between carbons are called alkenes. They follow the naming convention of the alkanes except that the suffix -ene is used instead of -ane. For alkenes above propene the position of the double bond must be specified in the name.
