Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions
Which of the following statements about alkynes is incorrect?
Steps
Concepts
Step 1: Understand what alkynes are. Alkynes are hydrocarbons that contain at least one triple bond between carbon atoms.
Step 2: Compare alkynes with alkenes. Alkenes are hydrocarbons that contain at least one double bond.
Step 3: Learn about reactivity. Generally, compounds with double bonds (alkenes) are more reactive than those with triple bonds (alkynes).
Step 4: Recognize the stability of bonds. The triple bond in alkynes is more stable than the double bond in alkenes, making alkynes less reactive.
Step 5: Identify the incorrect statement. If a statement claims that alkynes are more reactive than alkenes, it is incorrect.
