Answer:

have lower boiling points than alcohols of similar molecular weights.

Explanation:

Alkenes are hydrocarbons of the general molecular formula CnH2n. Alkenes are nonpolar hydrocarbons that are insoluble in water.

We must recall that alcohols are able to associate in water due to hydrogen bonding. This causes alcohols to have a relatively higher boiling point than alkenes of comparable molecular weight. Hencethe answer above.
