Solution

The correct option is B P-2; Q-4; R-1; S-3
Alkynes are unsaturated hydrocarbons having a triple bond between two carbon atoms. Hence, the formula is CnH2n2.
Alcohol is a functional group where OH is attached to a carbon atom.
An alkyl halide is an organic compound where a halogen atom is attached to the carbon atom instead of hydrogen.
Alkenes are unsaturated hydrocarbons having a double bond between two carbon atoms. Thus, the general formula is CnH2n.
