Addition reactions typically occur in unsaturated hydrocarbons, which contain at least one double or triple bond between carbon atoms.
As an alkene, butene contains a carbon-to-carbon double bond (C=C). This double bond can break (specifically the pi bond), allowing new atoms or groups of atoms to attach to the carbon atoms, resulting in a single saturated product. Common examples include hydrogenation (adding H\(_2\)) and halogenation (adding Cl\(_2\) or Br\(_2\))
