Write 3 distinguish between aldehyde and ketone
Answers
Explanation:
1.Aldehydes have the double bond at the end of the molecule. That means the carbon at the end of the chain has a double bond to an oxygen atom.
Ketones have the double bond anywhere in the molecule except for the end. That means you will see a double bond to oxygen from one of the carbon atoms in the middle of the chain.
2.In aldehydes, the carbon atom in the carbonyl group is bounded to a hydrogen and one carbon atom while in ketones it is bound to two other carbon atoms.
3. Aldehydes have carbonyl groups found at the end of the carbon chain while ketones have carbonyl groups usually positioned at the center of the chain.
4.Aldehydes and ketones display varying results when combined with chemical reagents. For the majority of such, ketones usually don’t give any reaction compared to aldehydes.
