Acetylene or ethyne is a non-saturated hydrocarbon contains 2 carbon and 2 hydrogen atoms. This chemical is mostly used for the chemical intermediate or reagent to produce other sintezed chemicals. Acetylene has C-C bond distance of 1.2024 angstrom and C-H distance of 1.0625 angstrom [1]. I will not talk much about the property of this molecule as it is already described well in all organic handbook. But I want to write something that probably you don’t know about the story behind it.
