Core content:
1) State that the bonding in alkenes includes a double carbon–carbon covalent bond and that alkenes are unsaturated hydrocarbons
2) Describe the manufacture of alkenes and hydrogen by the cracking of larger alkane molecules using a high temperature and a catalyst
3) Describe the reasons for the cracking of larger alkane molecules
4) Describe the test to distinguish between saturated and unsaturated hydrocarbons by their reaction with aqueous bromine

Extended content:
5) State that in an addition reaction only one product is formed
6) Describe the properties of alkenes in terms of addition reactions with:
(a) bromine or aqueous bromine
(b) hydrogen in the presence of a nickel catalyst
(c) steam in the presence of an acid catalyst
and draw the structural or displayed formulae of the products
