I would agree with you but I would say it contains ONLY 1 double bond.

Yes.. So alkadiene is much more volatile than alkene?

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.
