The decreasing order of acidic character among ethane (I), ethene (II)

1.	The decreasing order of acidic character among ethane (I), ethene (II), ethyne (III) and propyne (IV) is
Answer» `(I) gt (II) gt (III) gt (IV)` `(II) gt (III) gt (I) gt (IV)` `(III) gt (IV) gt (II) gt (I)` `(IV) gt (III) gt (II) gt (I)` Solution :The correct order of decreasing acidity is `UNDERSET((III))(CH-=CH) gt underset((IV))(CH-=C-CH_(3))gt underset((II))(CH_(2)=CH_(2)) gt underset((I))(CH_(3)-CH_(3))` HYDROGEN atoms attached to SP-hybridised CARBON-atom are most acidic, followed by those attached to `sp^(2)`-hybridised carbon-atom, and those attached to `sp^(3)`-hybridised carbon are least acidic.
