Q. 655.0( 5 Votes )
Which of the following compounds can have a triple bond?
C2H4, C3H4, C3H6,
Answer :
The hydrocarbons which having triple bond are called alkyne. The general formula of alkyne is CnH2n-2. Here, n is number of carbon atoms.
In alkyne, the number of hydrogen atom is 2 less than double the number of carbon atoms.
Thus, the compound C3H4 (Propyne) have a triple bond.
