Assertion (A): Acetylene does not react with

\mathrm{NaOH}

Reason (R): Acetylene has sp hybridised carbons.

View answer and explanation

Correct option: B

Both A

\&

R are correct but R is not the correct explanation of A

Option B (Both A

\& R are correct but R is not the correct explanation of A) is correct because acetylene is a weak acid and does not react with NaOH, and it does have sp hybridized carbons, but the hybridization is not the reason for its lack of reactivity with NaOH.
