(N/A) The ozonolysis of ethyne $(CH \equiv CH)$ involves the addition of ozone $(O_3)$ to form an ozonide intermediate,which upon reductive cleavage with zinc $(Zn)$ and water $(H_2O)$ yields glyoxal $(CHO-CHO)$.
The reaction is as follows:
$CH \equiv CH$ $\xrightarrow{+ O_3} \text{Ozonide}$ $\xrightarrow{Zn, H_2O, -ZnO} CHO-CHO$ (Glyoxal)
