Among the following, C₂H₂ has the weakest carbon-carbon strength.
- Hydrocarbons are classified into three categories, alkanes, alkenes, and alkynes.
- Two carbons are linked by single bonds in alkane, two bonds in alkene, and by triple bonds in alkyne.
- The bond strength of the single bond is the highest and is least for triple bonds.
- In the given options, C₂H₂ - ethyne (alkyne) has three bonds and has the weakest carbon-carbon strength.
