(a)
Interpretation:
The noncarboxyl
Concept Introduction:
Carbonyl groups are the one which contain a double bond between carbon and oxygen atom.
If a hydroxyl group is attached to a carbonyl group means it is known as carboxyl group. This can be represented as shown below,
Apart from carboxyl group, there can be other functional group also that is present in the
(b)
Interpretation:
The noncarboxyl functional group that is present in pyruvic acid has to be given.
Concept Introduction:
Carbonyl groups are the one which contain a double bond between carbon and oxygen atom. Aldehydes and ketones possess this carbonyl functional group in it. The structural representation of a carbonyl group can be given as shown below,
If a hydroxyl group is attached to a carbonyl group means it is known as carboxyl group. This can be represented as shown below,
Apart from carboxyl group, there can be other functional group also that is present in the carboxylic acid. They are known as polyfunctional carboxylic acids. These occur naturally also. Some of the important type of polyfunctional carboxylic acids are hydroxy acids, keto acids, and unsaturated acids.
(c)
Interpretation:
The noncarboxyl functional group that is present in malic acid has to be given.
Concept Introduction:
Carbonyl groups are the one which contain a double bond between carbon and oxygen atom. Aldehydes and ketones possess this carbonyl functional group in it. The structural representation of a carbonyl group can be given as shown below,
If a hydroxyl group is attached to a carbonyl group means it is known as carboxyl group. This can be represented as shown below,
Apart from carboxyl group, there can be other functional group also that is present in the carboxylic acid. They are known as polyfunctional carboxylic acids. These occur naturally also. Some of the important type of polyfunctional carboxylic acids are hydroxy acids, keto acids, and unsaturated acids.
(d)
Interpretation:
The noncarboxyl functional group that is present in tartaric acid has to be given.

- Instructions: Answer the following questions regarding the test for carboxylic acids.arrow_forwardTrue or False Liquid carboxylic acids have unpleasant odors. Lower molecular weight acids are odorless. The functional group OH-C=O can be part of a cyclic structure.arrow_forwardAcid Alcohol Odor Structure salicylic acid methanol wintergreen ? anthranilic acid methanol Grape ?arrow_forward
- Salicylic acid is added into a test tube, followed by methanol and sulfuric acid as the catalyst. It is heated for 10-15 minutes and poured into a beaker with crushed ice. This is the esterification of Oil of wintergreen. Write the complete reaction equation and describe the odor of the reactants (salicylic acid and methanol) and the products (oil of wintergreen).arrow_forwardWhat is the structure and Intermolecular forces of the following: A.
