Answer:
Percentage of carbon of alkene is higher compared to the alkane that has the same number of carbon per molecule. Because of this, combustion of alkene will produce more sooty flame compared to their corresponding alkane and because Alkenes have a higher percentage of carbon compared to their corresponding alkane.
Explanation:
Relative atomic mass : C= 12 and H=1
Percentage of Carbon Hexane (C6H14)
Percentage of Carbon = 83.7 percent
6(12) x 6(12) +14(1) x 100 percent= 83.7 percent
Percentage of Carbon Hexene = 85.7 percent
