    Which of the following organic compounds exhibit acidic character?

    A) \[{{H}_{3}}C-C\equiv CH\]

    B)  \[{{H}_{3}}C-C\equiv C-C{{H}_{3}}\]

    C)  \[{{H}_{2}}C=C{{H}_{2}}\]

    D)  \[{{H}_{3}}C-C{{H}_{3}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

     The H-atoms of terminal alkyne \[(ie,{{H}_{3}}C-C\equiv CH)\] is weakly acidic. \[C{{H}_{3}}\equiv CH+Na{{H}_{2}}\xrightarrow{\text{liq}\text{.N}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}}{{H}_{3}}C-CH\equiv CNa\] \[+\,N{{H}_{3}}\]
