Hydrocarbons that contain a carbon-carbon double bond.	Alkenes
What type of organic compounds react with water (steam) to form alcohols?	Alkenes react with water (steam) to form alcohols.
A process that leads to the transformation of one set of chemical substances to another.	Chemical Reaction
What type of reaction results in the formation of alcohols from alkenes and water (steam)?	The reaction between alkenes and water (steam) is a chemical reaction that forms alcohols.
Compounds consisting of hydrogen and carbon atoms only.	Hydrocarbons
What structural feature do alkenes have that allows them to react with water to form alcohols?	Alkenes have a carbon-carbon double bond, which makes them reactive and allows them to undergo reactions with water to form alcohols.
