What is Distinguishing Alkenes from Alkanes about?

The document summarizes an experiment to distinguish between alkenes and alkanes. Three drops of bromine water were added to test tubes containing hexane (an alkane) and hexene (an alkene). The hexane solution did not decolorize, showing it was less reactive. The hexene solution did decolorize, proving alkenes are more reactive than alkanes and fulfilling the aim and hypothesis of the experiment.
