both are examples of alkynes and hence have similar chemical properties.
They may be ethene, propene! ethyne, propyne and all the unsaturated hydrocarbons
Alkynes are a similar functional group to alkanes and alkenes. The difference is that alkynes have a triple bond between two carbon atoms. The most well known alkyne is Ethyne (Acetylene) . Its structure is H-C///C-H . This gas is used in oxy-acetylene burners, and produces a very hot flame to melt metals. Other alkynes are Propyne ; H-C///C-CH3 But-1-yne ; H-C///C - CH2-CH3 But-2-yne ; H3C-C///C-CH3 Be careful when spellings these chemcial names , there is only ONE letter difference. alkAne, alkEne, & alkYne.
Ethyne has the chemical formula H-C///C-H For all carbon atoms. irrespective of the molecule, there MUST be four covalent bonds. So in ethyne , any one carbon atom makes four bonds. One bond to the hydrogen , and the other three bonds to the adjacent carbon atom. So where ethene is described as 'double bonded', ethyne can be described as 'triple bonded'. Other Alkyne molecules are H-C///C - CH3 ( Propyne) H-C///C - CH2 - CH3 ( But-1-yne) H3C-C///C-CH3 (But-2-yne) et seq., NB Be careful with the nomenclature. There is only ONE letter difference in the names. Alkanes 'a' , Alkenes 'e' and Alkynes 'y'.
There is a double bond between the two carbons, so that is one sigma bond and one pi bond. The hydrogen's all are sigma bonded to the carbons so there are four sigma bonds there. So, there is one pi bond overall and five sigma bonds overall.
Propyne reacts with hydrogen chloride (HCl) to form vinyl chloride. This reaction is an addition reaction where hydrogen chloride adds across the triple bond in propyne to form a new bond with the carbon atoms, resulting in the formation of vinyl chloride.
Propyne is not called 1-propyne because the prefix "1-" is used to indicate the location of a functional group on a carbon chain when there are multiple sites of attachment. In the case of propyne, there is only one carbon in the chain, so no numbering is needed.
the polymer of ethyne or any other compound like propyne will be a conductor because it will have resonance because of alternating double bonds ....these plastics are used to make light batteries,light wires ,etc these are very light and have conductivity comparable to metals..........abhishek

If an alkyne has three carbon atoms, it is called propyne.
there are 2 pi bonds and 1 sigma bond in propyne (alkynes)

The chemical formula of propyne is CH3C≡CH.
By combustion ethyne is transformed in carbon dioxide and water.

Oxygen is much more dense than ethyne. This is why a test tube full of ethyne would be held upside down so the ethyne doesnt escape into the air.
