Question

Acetylenecon reaction with cuprous choride and ammonium chloride gives

Answer 1

We get copper acetylide

C2H2+CuCl (in presence of NH4Cl) --------> Cu2C2 +HCl

Cu2C2 will be like : Cu-C≡C-Cu

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

Reaction of ammoniacal cuprous chloride with acetylene gives but-1,3-yne. - Glaser coupling is identification test for terminal alkynes. - In this reaction, an terminal alkyne reacts with ammoniacal cupric chloride which on subsequent oxidation in air gives diyne
