Correct answer
D will have higher dipole moment and higher boiling point than Y
Step-by-step explanation
When 2-butyne is treated with /Lindlar's catalyst, compound (cis-2-butene) is produced as the major product; and when treated with liq it produces (trans -2- butene) as the major product. Cisisomer will have higher dipole moment and higher boiling point than .
