Question

Explain aldehyde with examples???at least 2 examples?

Answer 1

An aldehyde is an organic compound containing a functional group with the structure −CHO, consisting of a carbonyl center (a carbon double-bonded to oxygen) with the carbon atom also bonded to hydrogen and to an R group,. The group—without R—is the aldehyde group, also known as the formyl group.  Many fragrances are aldehydes.

examples : - Methanal - HCHO

                      Propanal - C3H6O

Hope it helped you !!! 

if it did help help , pls mark this as brainliest ans !!!!!

Answer 2

Aldehydes are organic compounds characterized by having the functional group -CHO (formyl) .A formyl group is obtained by separating a hydrogen atom from formaldehyde. As such it has no free existence, although it can be considered that all aldehydes possess a terminal formyl group.


The aldehydes are named as the corresponding alcohols, changing the -ol ending by -al.Etimologically, the word aldehyde comes from the Latin scientist alcohol dehydrogenatum (dehydrogenated alcohol).


Examples:

Butiraldehyde or Butanal has a very characteristic apple aroma, which is why it is used as a synthetic aroma in foods. In addition, it is used for the production of rubber accelerators. It also acts as an intermediate reagent in the manufacture of plasticizers, solvents and alcohols.

Acetaldehyde serves as a raw material to oxidize it and produce Acetic Acid. In addition, he is involved in production processes of perfumes, dyes, plastics and synthetic rubber.
