(b)
Interpretation:
The structure of CH3CH2COCH3 should be drawn clearly and labeled as ketone or aldehyde.
Concept Introduction:
A carbonyl group is a group composed of carbon and oxygen atoms, which are double-bonded to each other. Any compound comprising aldehyde group is termed as a carbonyl molecule. In organic chemistry, there are various carbonyl compounds, such as aldehyde, ketone, carboxylic acid, carboxylate ester, and amide.
