Introduction to Alkanes and Alkenes: Chemical Formulas, Naming, and Differences

The video tutorial introduces alkenes, a family of hydrocarbons with carbon-carbon double bonds. It explains the homologous series and the pattern of increasing carbon and hydrogen atoms. The video contrasts alkenes with alkanes, highlighting the concept of saturation. It also covers isomerism, where alkenes can have different structures but the same molecular formula. Finally, it provides a guide on naming alkenes based on the number of carbon atoms and the position of double bonds.
