A) Both aldehydes and ketones contain a carbonyl group. That means that their reactions are very similar in this respect. An aldehyde differs from a ketone by having a hydrogen atom attached to the carbonyl group. This makes the aldehydes very easy to oxidise.
B) Organic Chemistry/Ketones and aldehydes. ... They are organic compounds in which the carbonyl carbon is connected to C or H atoms on either side. An aldehyde has one or both vacancies of the carbonyl carbon satisfied by a H atom, while a ketone has both its vacancies satisfied by carbon.
sangeetamittal2:
In ketone grp why not the vacancies are filled by Hydrogen?
The ketone has one oxygen atom in it and there are two lone pairs hanging out, both of which make it seemingly capable of hydrogen bonding. But in reality it is not.
