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
    $\ce{C_5 H_{12}}$
✓

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 $\left( \ce{C_2 H_5 - CH_2 - CH_2 - CHO} \right)$ which have different functional groups.
