- which functional groups are in C6H12O2 with it having 1 degree of saturation, and is the molecule hexanoic acid?arrow_forwardGlucose, C6H12O6, contains an aldehyde group but exist predominantly in the form of the cyclic hemiacetal show below. A cyclic hemiacetal is formed when the —OH group of one carbon bonds to the carbonyl group of another carbon. Identify which carbon provides the —OH group and which provides the —CHO? Give a functional isomer of glucose and draw its structure.arrow_forwardThere are eight structures with the formula C3H7NO in whichthe O is part of a carbonyl group. Draw the structures andidentify the functional groups in each.arrow_forward
