Why does ethyne (acetylene) burns with a sooty flame?
उत्तर
Unsaturated hydrocarbons, such as acetylene have high percentage of carbon. They have a higher percentage of carbon as compared to corresponding alkanes and alkenes. When ethyne is burned in air, it does not get completely oxidised, thereby producing a sooty flame.
