b.
To identify:
The given compound is an aldehyde or a ketone.
Introduction:
The organic compounds which consist of carbonyl are called aldehydes. The benzaldehyde and formaldehyde are the two examples of aldehydes. The benzaldehyde is responsible for the aroma which is a type of aldehyde like in almonds and cherries. The ketone family of organic compounds is structurally similar to the aldehydes. Acetone is one of the examples of ketone.
