The correct answer is:
$s p$
$\mathrm{CaC}_2+2 \mathrm{D}_2 \mathrm{O} \longrightarrow \underset{\substack{\text { Deutero } \\ \text { acetylene }}}{\mathrm{C}_2 \mathrm{D}_2}+\mathrm{Ca}(\mathrm{OD})_2$
The hybridisation of carbon atoms in deutero acetylene is $s p$.
$\mathrm{D}-\mathrm{C} \equiv \mathrm{C}-\mathrm{D}$
The hybridisation of carbon atoms in deutero acetylene is $s p$.
$\mathrm{D}-\mathrm{C} \equiv \mathrm{C}-\mathrm{D}$
