Detailed Solution

Bond Order = no. of bonds between 2 atoms

In C2H2 , there is CC    bond order = 3

In C2H4 , there is C=C    bond order = 2

In C2H6 , there is C-C    bond order = 1

Bond Order is directly proportional to Bond Strength and Bond Stability, and thus Bond Energy.

More is the Bond Order, more stable the bond is hence more is the Bond Energy required to break the bond.

Thus, Bond energy increases with increase in the bond order and Carbon-carbon bond energy values are in the order C2H2 > C2H4 > C2H6.

So, A and R are true, R explains A.
