a) C3H8 b) C12H22O11
c) CH4 d) C2H2

Answer 1

Answer:

I think co2

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

option d is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

The given compounds are alkane, alkene and alkyne. It is known that in alkanes carbon atom is sp^{3}sp

3

hybridized, in alkenes carbon atom is sp^{2}sp

2

hybridized and in alkynes carbon atom is sp hybridized.

This means that in alkanes s-character is very less whereas in alkynes s-character is very high. Since it is known that more is the s-character present in a compound more will be its acidic character.

Hence, we can conclude that out of the given options, C_{2}H_{2}C

2

H

2

compound shows acidic nature.
