(b) Given compound is Aldehyde.

(c) Given compound is ketone.

(d) Given compound is ketone.

Step by step solution

01

Part (a) Step 1: Given Information

We need to identify the given compound as ketone or aldehyde.

02

Part (a) Step 2: Explanation

We are given a compound in which carbon atom is sharing double bond with an oxygen atom, also a Single bond with one hydrogen atom, and a single bond that is with another atom or group of atoms. That is why it is an aldehyde.

03

Part (b) Step 1: Given Information

We need to identify the given compound as ketone or aldehyde.

04

Part (b) Step 2: Explanation

We are given a compound in which carbon atom is sharing double bond with an oxygen atom, also a Single bond with one hydrogen atom, and a single bond that is with another atom or group of atoms. That is why it is an aldehyde.

05

Part (c) Step 1: Given Information

We need to identify the given compound as ketone or aldehyde.

06

Part (c) Step 2:  Explanation

We are given a compound in which carbon atom shares a double bond with an oxygen atom and Two single bond with another atom or group of atoms or the Carbonyl group being attached to the Carbon atom in the carbon chain that's why it is an ketone.

07

Part (d) Step 1: Given Information

We need to identify the given compound as ketone or aldehyde.

08

Part (d) Step 2: Explanation

We are given a compound in which carbon atom shares a double bond with an oxygen atom and Two single bond with another atom or group of atoms or the Carbonyl group being attached to the Carbon atom in the carbon chain that's why it is an ketone.
