Which has higher boiling point?
A. Alkenes
B. Alkadienes
I think my answer would be A because it contains 1 double bond (1 pi bond)
Answered by DrBob222
I would agree with you but I would say it contains ONLY 1 double bond.
Answered by fay
Yes.. So alkadiene is much more volatile than alkene?
Answered by DrBob222
I don't know that I would say MUCH more volatile. That depends upon what two or three alkenes/alkadienes you are comparing. Also it may depend more upon the intermolecular forces than on the number of pi bonds.
