MCQ
One of the following molecular formula can represent two organic compounds having different functional groups. This molecular formula is:
  • A
    $\ce{C_5H_{12}O}$
  • $\ce{C_5H_{10}O}$
  • C
    $\ce{C_5H_{10}O_2}$
  • D
    $\ce{C_5H_{12}}$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$\ce{C_5H_{10}O}$
$\ce{C_5H_{10}O}$ represents two organic compounds ketones $\ce{(C_2H_5-CO-C_2H_5)}$ and aldehydes $\ce{(C_2H_5-CH_2-CH_2-CHO)}$ which have different functional groups.
