Question

although both >c=c< and >c=o have a double bond the exhibit different types of addition reactions explain​

Answer 1

Answer:

Alkenes undergo electrophilic addition whereas aldehydes and ketones undergo nucleophilic addition because in alkenes the double bond joins two carbon atoms and there is no resultant polarity. while in carbonyl compounds reactions due to the polarity in the carbonyl bond that makes them vulnerable to a nucleophile, an atom that donates electrons.
