bond?

Why is there no rotation about the C=C double bond?
Due to the π (pi) orbital - electron density above and below the single bond, which holds the carbon atoms in place

Are they more or less reactive than alkanes? Why?
More reactive, due to high electron density of double bond and the fact the pi-bond is slightly easier to break
