: [[Propene]] is [[hydrocarbon]] because it contains only [[Hydrogen]] and [[Carbon]] [[atom]]s.

: [[Propene]] has a [[Double Bond|double bond]] between ~~the~~ two [[Carbon]] [[atom]]s.

: [[Propene]] is described as 'unsaturated' due to the [[Double Bond|double bond]] as it is not completely 'saturated' by [[Hydrogen]] [[atom]]s like [[Propane]].

: [[Propene]] can be [[oxidise]]d to [[product|produce]] [[Carbon Dioxide]] and [[Water]].

: [[Propene]] + [[Oxygen]] → [[Carbon Dioxide]] + [[Water]]
