Ques. 1JEE Main 2024, 9 April (Evening Shift)

The incorrect statement regarding ethyne is

  1. The carbon-carbon bond in ethyne is weaker than that in ethene
  2. Both carbons are sp hybridised
  3. The C-C bond in ethyne is shorter than that in ethene
  4. Ethyne is linear

Answer

(1) The carbon-carbon bond in ethyne is weaker than that in ethene

Solution

Ethyne H-C C-H has one σ and two π bonds between the carbons; ethene has one σ and one π bond.

(1): more bonds hold the carbons, so C≡C (bond enthalpy 823 kJ mol-1) is stronger than C=C ( 681 kJ mol-1); hence (1) is incorrect.

(2): each carbon forms two σ bonds, so it is sp hybridised; hence (2) is correct.

(3): C≡C (120 pm) is shorter than C=C (134 pm), so (3) is correct.

(4): sp carbons give a 180° bond angle, so (4) is correct.

Answer: (1)
