$${\text{Stability of alkene}} \propto \frac{1}{{{\text{Heat of hydrogenation of alkene}}}}$$
Greater the number of alkyl groups attached to the double bonded carbon atoms, more stable is the alkene. Hence, given alkene follow the following order of stability.
Hence, faster hydrogenation occurs in

Which of the following compounds are antiaromatic
For a compound to be aromatic it must have $$\left( {4n + 2} \right)\pi {e^ - }$$ and system should be planar where $$n$$ is an integer. (V) and (VI) both have $$4\,{e^ - }$$ and planar structure. Hence are Antiaromatic.

Acetylenic hydrogens are acidic because
A
sigma electron density of $$C-H$$ bond in acetylene is nearer to carbon which has 50% $$s$$ - character
B
acetylene has only one hydrogen on each carbon
C
acetylene contains least number of hydrogens among the possible hydrocarbons having two carbons
D
acetylene belong to the class of alkynes with molecular formula $${C_n}{H_{2n - 2}}$$
Answer :
sigma electron density of $$C-H$$ bond in acetylene is nearer to carbon which has 50% $$s$$ - character
Acidic character of alkynes can be explained on the basis of $$sp$$ - hybridisation state of the carbon atom in alkynes. We know that an electron in $$s$$ orbital is more tightly held than in a $$P$$ orbital because $$s$$ - electrons are more closer to the nucleus. In $$sp$$ -hybridisation, $$s$$ - character is more 50% as compared to $$s{p^2}$$ - (33%) or $$s{p^3}$$ - (25%) hybrid orbitals. Due to very large $$s$$ - character, the electrons in $$sp$$ - hybrid orbitals are held tightly by the nucleus and are quite electronegative. Consequently, the electron pair of $$H - C \equiv $$ bond gets displaced more towards the carbon atom and help in the release of $${H^ + }\,ions.$$
For a example ethyne react with sodium metal and release the $${H^ + }\,ions.$$
$$CH \equiv CH + Na \to HC \equiv {C^ - }N{a^ + }$$

Which of the following types of reaction occur when a reactant has got a double bond ?
(i) Addition
(ii) Photolysis
(iii) Nucleophilic substitution
(iv) Polymerization
Addition reaction occurs on a double bond.
The compound containing double bonds are also undergo polymerisation. So, the correct option are both (i) and (iv) e.g
