Question

Assertion: Terminal alkynes on oxidation with Bayer's reagent give a mixture of carboxylic acid and CO2

.

Reason: Terminal alkynes show acidic character.​

Answer 1

Answer:

(b) Both assertion and reason are CORRECT but, reason is NOT THE CORRECT

explanation of the assertion.

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

(b)

Explanation:

Terminal alkynes on oxidation with alkaline solution of cold potassium permanganate (KMNO4) i.e . Baeyer's reagent give a mixture of

carboxylic acid and carbon dioxide

and

carbon with -1 charge is stable so H+ is given out easily

thus,Terminal alkynes show acidic character.​

Therefore,

Assertion and reason both are correct statements but reason is not correct explanation for assertion
