Question

On catalytic hydrogenation, ethylene gives ethane during this reaction

• A. Hybridization of carbon atoms changes from $sp ^{2}$ to $sp ^{3}$
• B. bond angle decreases from $120^{\circ}$ to $109.5^{\circ}$
• C. C-C bond length increases from $1.34 A ^{\circ}$ to $1.54 A ^{\circ}$
• D. All of these

Answer 1
