Consider the hydrocarbon below. what is the name of this hydrocarbon? 1-ethyne 1-pentyne 1-ethane 1-butyne

The correct option is A.
Ethyne belongs to the alkyne family of the hydrocarbon and it is the simplest member of that family. It is made up of two carbon atoms and two hydrogen atom that has one triple bond between them. Ethyne is a gas at room temperature and it is widely used as fuel. As a fuel, it is easily ignited and it burn with a sooty flame; the gas is lighter than air.
Looking at the diagram given, you can determine the number of carbon in the structure by counting the number of joints in the structure, that is the location of the carbon in the structure. The structure we are given have two joints, which means two carbons are present. Out of all the options given, it is only ethyne that has 2 carbons and a triple bond in its structure. Pentyne has 5 carbon, butyne has 4 and ethane is an alkane which has 5 carbon atoms and single bonds in its molecule.

True, the standard unit for volume is liters which can be represented by either a lower case "l" or a capital "l"
