Question

Write the functional groups present in an aldehyde and a carboxylic acid​

Answer 1

Answer:            Aldehydes and ketones contain the carbonyl functional                group. In an aldehyde, the carbonyl is at the end of a carbon chain, while in a ketone, it is in the middle. A carboxylic acid contains the carboxyl functional group. They are weak acids because the hydrogen of the hydroxyl group is ionizable.

Answer 2

Answer:

Aldehydes contain the carbonyl functional group.

A carboxylic acid contains the carboxyl functional group. They are weak acids because the hydrogen of the hydroxyl group is ionizable.
