Carbonyl group:
A carbon atom is double-bonded to an oxygen atom
If the carbonyl carbon is attached with two alkyl or aryl group is called as ketone, if the carbonyl carbon is attached with one hydrogen atom and one alkyl or aryl group is called as aldehyde.
Carboxylic acid: One
The derivatives of carboxylic acid are ester, amide
Ester: One
Amide: One
Alcohol:
The compound contains hydroxyl
Example is given below
Alkenes:
Alkenes are a class of hydrocarbons. The carbon-carbon double bond is called as alkenes and it is also called as olefins.
