The carbons and oxygens of the carboxylic acid functional group are red. (B) This is the structure of oleic acid, an 18-carbon unsaturated fat. The carbons of the alkene functional group ...

This causes a smoky flame. Alkenes have a functional group C=C – the part of the molecule that takes part in reactions. Alkanes, in contrast, do not have a functional group and are less reactive ...
