Explanation:
Alkynes are acyclic (branched or unbranched) aliphatic hydrocarbons having one carbon-to-carbon triple bond and, thus, the general molecular formula CnH2n-2 [18]. Following the trend, triple bonds are shorter and stronger than double bonds.

An alkyne is an unsaturated hydrocarbon containing at least one carbon—carbon triple bond. The simplest acyclic alkynes with only one triple bond and no other functional groups form a homologous series with the general chemical formula CₙH₂ₙ−2.
Higher classifications: Unsaturated hydrocarbon.
