Answer:

very reactive

Step-by-step explanation:

The alkenes and alkynes are very reactive organic compound at their double and triple bonds participating in an extensive range of reactions which can be nucleophilc, addition , free radical reactions just to mention a few.

The reason for this reactivity is the high density of electrons due to the double and triple bonds responsible for the "unsaturation"
