Re: Are alkenes and alkynes considered functional groups?
On the 2015 exam, Q10A did not list them as functional groups.
Since it says that any functional group that is incorrect will have points taken off, I was wondering if we needed to circle to double bonds as well since they are alkenes.

This confused me too because on Q5A. on the 2013 final alkene was considered a functional group but not on 2015 Q10? So I don't get whether or not it is..

I would label them as functional groups just in case so we don't lose points unnecessarily.
