Solution
Addition Reactions: The reactions in which molecules of the attacking
reagent add across the double or triple bond of an unsaturated compound to yield saturated compound.
In case of ethene the addition occurs due to presence of double bond hence one molecule of the compound is added whereas in case of alkynes there is presence of triple bond hence two molecules of the compound is added.
