Alkenes - 40 million X

Alkene Kit - 40 million X

Alkenes are unsaturated hydrocarbons, organic compounds made of entirely hydrogen and carbon, that contain at least one carbon-carbon double bond. The general chemical formula is C(n)H(2n), where n indicates the number of carbon atoms. For example, when n = 2 the chemical formula is C2H4, which is the simplest alkene, ethene (also known as ethylene).

This kit includes the following alkenes: ethene, propene, butene, pentene, hexene, heptene, octene, nonene and decene scaled to 40 million X. The colors assigned to each element follow the color scheme used by many popular molecular visualizers: hydrogen (H) is white and carbon (C) is gray.
