Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The reason as to why excess of acetylene is avoided in reaction of acetylene and ethylmagnesium bromide and its mechanism are tobe stated.

Concept introduction:

The compounds that contain carbon and hydrogen atoms are known as hydrocarbon compounds. These compounds originate from plants and animals. These are also known as organic compounds. There are two classes of hydrocarbon compounds which are saturated and unsaturated hydrocarbons. Unsaturated hydrocarbon compound are of two types alkenes and alkynes. The alkene contains a double bond between two carbon atoms. The alkynes contain a triple bond between two carbon atoms and follow general formula CnH2n-2. The name of the alkyne compounds ends with a suffix yne.

Interpretation Introduction
