Alcohols start with methanol, aldehydes start with methanal, and carboxylic acids start with methanol acid. But "KETONES" don't start with "METHANONE" and don't have an "ETHANONE" too... Why does this happen??

Answer:

Since methanone and ethanone would only contain 1 carbon atom and 2 carbon atoms respectively - no such compound exists, the first compound with a susbstituted ketone group is thus propanone

In chemistry, a ketone /ˈkiːtoʊn/ is a functional group with the structure RC(=O)R', where R and R' can be a variety of carbon-containing substituents. Ketones and aldehydes are simple compounds that contain a carbonyl group (a carbon-oxygen double bond). They are considered "simple" because they do not have reactive groups like −OH or −Cl attached directly to the carbon atom in the carbonyl group, as in carboxylic acids containing −COOH.[1] Many ketones are known and many are of great importance in industry and in biology. Examples include many sugars (ketoses) and the industrial solvent acetone, which is the smallest ketone.
