Answer: The compound formed is 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane
Explanation:
Ethyne is a type of alkyne where a triple covalent bond is present between carbon-carbon atom.
The addition of one equivalent of halogen to alkynes results in the formation of haloalkanes. Adding another equivalent to the formed haloalkene will form tetrahaloalkane.
Chlorine is a reactive atom and will finally form 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane.
The equation for the above reaction is attached in the image below.
