Question

Both aldehydes and ketenes contain carbonyl groups: In aldehydes, the carbonyl carbon atom is bonded to a hydrogen atom, whereas in ketoses the carbonyl carbon atom is bonded to another carbon atom. Determine which of the following statements are true. Select (check) the correct statements. Butanal has a higher boiling point than 2-butanol.Aldehydes contain a carbonyl group. Propanal is a gas at room temperature, whereas formaldehyde (methanol) is a liquid at room temperature. Ketones with fewer than five carbon atoms are soluble in organic solvents, but not in water. Ketones have lower boiling points than alcohols of similar size. Both aldehydes and ketones can hydrogen bond with water molecules.
