Concept explainers
Interpretation:
Where the carbonyl group is located in an aldehyde has to be chosen from the given options.
Concept Introduction:
Carbonyl groups are the one which contain a double bond between carbon and oxygen atom.
An aldehyde is a carbonyl compound in which the carbonyl carbon atom is bonded to at least one hydrogen atom directly. The other group attached to the carbonyl carbon atom can be alkyl, cycloalkyl, or aryl group.
A ketone is a carbonyl compound in which the carbonyl carbon atom is bonded to two other carbon atoms directly. The groups attached to the carbonyl carbon atom can be alkyl, cycloalkyl, or aryl group.
