Alkenes are soluble in
Correct answer: D. Benzene
- A. Water
- B. Alcohol
- C. Ether
- D. Benzene
Explanation
Alkenes are generally soluble in non-polar solvents like benzene because of their similar non-polar nature. Water, alcohol, and ether are polar solvents and do not interact effectively with non-polar alkenes, resulting in limited or no solubility.

About Chemistry of Hydrocarbons
Hydrocarbons are studied through the structures and reactions of alkanes, alkenes, alkynes and aromatic compounds. Coverage includes free radical substitution in alkanes, electrophilic addition to carbon-carbon multiple bonds, benzene substitution, aromatic stability and the difference between addition reactions of alkenes and substitution reactions of benzene.
