**Title: Hydrogenation Reaction: Determining the Final Product****Objective:**To identify the final product of a hydrogenation reaction using a palladium catalyst (Pd-C).**Reaction Given:**- Reactant: A molecule with a triple bond (alkyne), specifically a substituted alkyne.- Catalysts: Hydrogen gas (H₂) and palladium on carbon (Pd-C).**Problem Statement:***Select the final product of the following reaction:*The image provides four options as potential products of the reaction:1. **Option A:** A structure with a double bond positioned between a linear chain and a branching chain.2. **Option B:** A completely saturated hydrocarbon (alkane) that lacks any double or triple bonds.3. **Option C:** Another structure with a double bond but with different branching compared to Option A.4. **Option D:** A structure with a Pd (palladium) marker attached, indicating that it may represent an intermediate or part of the catalytic process.**Detailed Explanation:**For the hydrogenation of alkynes:- **Triple Bonds to Single Bonds:** Hydrogenation involves the addition of hydrogen (H₂) across the multiple bonds (double or triple bonds) in the presence of a catalyst. - **Complete Hydrogenation:** In the presence of Pd-C, the reaction generally proceeds to complete hydrogenation, converting all triple and double bonds to single bonds (alkane).Thus, evaluating each option with this knowledge:- **Option A and C:** Show structures with remaining double bonds, indicating partial hydrogenation.- **Option B:** Represents a fully hydrogenated molecule (an alkane) which matches the expectation of complete saturation of bonds.- **Option D:** Shows a molecule with a Pd (palladium) marker, denoting that it might be an intermediate structure and not the final stable product.**Conclusion:**The correct answer is **Option B** since it represents the fully hydrogenated alkane structure, which is the expected end product when an alkyne undergoes complete hydrogenation using H₂ and a Pd-C catalyst.
