Rancidity : Alkenes , alkynes or Alkanes
Explanation:
Rancidity
It is referred to oxidation of substance (food item ) when it is exposed to air due to which it starts smelling bad and even the odour becomes foul .
Now , let us discuss about the rancidity in alkenes , alkanes and alkynes .
In alkanes : There is a single bond between C-C atom .
In alkenes : There is a atleast one double bond between C-C atom .
In alkynes : There is atleast one triple bond between C-C atom .
In alkenes and alkynes , the oxidation occur easily because of unsaturation .
Whereas in alkanes , there is a single bond that makes the alkane less reactive .
The order towards rancidity :
Alkyne > Alkene> alkane
