### Structural Overview of Organic Compounds

This section provides the structural formulas of three organic compounds, designated as I, II, and III.

#### Compound I

- **Structure:**
  - Contains a benzene ring (a six-membered carbon ring with alternating double bonds).
  - Attached to the benzene ring is a carboxamide group (H\NH-C=O-CH₃).
- **Functional Groups:**
  - Benzene ring.
  - Carboxamide group.

#### Compound II

- **Structure:**
  - Contains a benzene ring.
  - Attached to the benzene ring is an acetaldehyde group (CH₂-C=O-CH₃).
- **Functional Groups:**
  - Benzene ring.
  - Acetaldehyde group.

#### Compound III

- **Structure:**
  - Contains a benzene ring.
  - Attached to the benzene ring is a tert-butyl group (C(CH₃)₃).
- **Functional Groups:**
  - Benzene ring.
  - Tert-butyl group.

### Diagrams and Structural Details

1. **Compound I (Left Structure):**
   - Benzene ring with a carboxamide group.
   - Noted by the molecular formula H₂N-C=O-CH₃ attached directly to the benzene ring.

2. **Compound II (Middle Structure):**
   - Benzene ring with an acetaldehyde group.
   - The molecular formula CH₂-C=O-CH₃ attached directly to the benzene ring indicates the placement of the functional group.

3. **Compound III (Right Structure):**
   - Benzene ring with a tert-butyl group.
   - The formula C(CH₃)₃ attached to the benzene ring signifies the attachment point and the size of the tertiary carbon group.

These compounds illustrate different types of functional groups attached to a benzene ring, showcasing the diverse chemistry of aromatic compounds.
