Give the decreasing order of `C-H` bond length in ethane, ethene and ethyne and why?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine the decreasing order of C-H bond lengths in ethane, ethene, and ethyne, we can analyze the bond lengths and the hybridization states of carbon in these compounds. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Compounds and Their Bond Lengths:** - Ethane (C2H6) has a C-H bond length of 111 picometers (1.11 Å). - Ethene (C2H4) has a C-H bond length of 110.3 picometers (1.103 Å). - Ethyne (C2H2) has a C-H bond length of 108 picometers (1.08 Å). ...
