Terminal alkynes and Non Terminal Alkynes are both variants of alkynes, but the difference lies in the position of the triple carbon bond. Terminal Alkynes have the triple carbon bond at the end of the chain, such as ethyne and propyne. On the other hand, Non Terminal Alkynes have their triple carbon bond in the middle of the chain. Example: 2-Butyene.

According to this rule, when a hydrogen halide (HX) or water is added to an asymmetrical alkene, the hydrogen atom (H) gets attached to the carbon atom of the double bond which has more hydrogen atoms, and the halide (X) or OH group attaches to the carbon atom which has fewer hydrogen atoms.
