A) an aldehyde
B) an acid
C) ail alcohol
D) an ether
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
On complete oxidation the obtained compound shows in/creament in molecular weight of only 16. It means only one oxygen atom is added here. This condition is fulfilled by only aldehyde which on oxidation gives acid. \[RCHO\xrightarrow{[O]}RCOOH\] \[\therefore \] original compound must be \[\underset{Mol.wt.44}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}CHO}}\,\xrightarrow{[O]}\underset{Mol.w.t.60}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}COOH}}\,\]You need to login to perform this action.
