Chapter 10, Problem 20P

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Given statements are true or false is to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

1. Functional group is responsible for characteristic reactions of particular compound.
2. Aldehyde and ketone contain carbonyl group in their functional group and alcohol contain hydroxyl group.
3. Carbon atom which is directly attached to onky one carbon is called primary carbon, an if directly attached to two carbon then it is called secondary carbon and if directly attached to three carbon then it is called tertiary carbon.
4. Comounds with same molecular formula but different structural formula are called isomers of each other.
5. Comounds with same molecular formula but different structural formula are called isomers of each other.
6. Carbon attached to oxygen atom by double bond is called carbonyl group =C=O.
7. Carbocylic acid contain −COOH functional froup.
8. Oxygen of carbonyl group is having the lone pair of electrons.
9. In aldehyde there one hydrogen attached to carbonyl group but in ketones both sides carbon is attached to carbonyl carbon.
10. In carboxylic acid hydrogen can be attached to −COOH group.
