Assertion. C-H bond in ethyne is shorter...

Assertion. C-H bond in ethyne is shorter than C-H bonds in ethene.
Reason. Carbon atom in ethene is sp hybridised while it is `sp^3` in ethyne.

A

If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If the assertion and reason both are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
The correct reason is the carbon atom is `sp^2` hybridised in ethene and sp hybridised in ethyne.
