    Shortest C-C bond length is present in :

    A)  \[C{{H}_{3}}-C{{H}_{2}}-C{{H}_{3}}\]

    B)  \[C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}C{{H}_{2}}C{{H}_{3}}\]

    C)  \[C{{H}_{2}}=CH-CH=C{{H}_{2}}\]

    D)  \[CH\equiv C-C\equiv CH\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Key Idea: \[\therefore \] \[C\equiv C\] has shortest bond length among C-C, C = C and \[C\equiv C\] C - C bond length = 1.54 \[\overset{o}{\mathop{A}}\,\] C = C bond length = 1.33 \[\overset{o}{\mathop{A}}\,\] \[C\equiv C\] bond length = 1.20 \[\overset{o}{\mathop{A}}\,\] The compound having shortest carbon-carbon bond length is  \[CH\equiv C-C\equiv CH\].
