between methane and ethen which one is acidic and why?
As +I effect increases acidic nature decreases So in ethane which is having 2 cH3 (2 +i) groups thereby having less acidic natureCH3 > C2H5
Dear student Ethene is more acidic than Ethane and ethane is more acidic than propane. The reason is that, in Ethene Carbon atom is sp2 hybridized while Carbon atom in Ethane is sp3 hybridized.
dear friendBoth the hydrogen atoms are identical and connected with carbon which is sp hybridised hence, Ethyne is most acidic. Ethene is less acidic than Ethene as the carbon containing hydrogen is sp2 hybridised (%s character is 33.3, hence less electronegative).thank u
