Question

Which organic compound is isometric with at least one aldehyde?

alcohol
carboxylic acid
ester
ketone

Answer 1

Answer) D. ketone. Im not sure if its right tho                                                                                        

Answer 2

Ketone is isomeric with an organic compound containing at least one aldehyde group

Step-by-step explanation:

Isomers have same molecular formula but different functional groups due to variation in positioning of certain atoms within molecules.

Let us consider 1-propanal (contains one aldehyde group). Acetone is isomeric with 1-propanal as both have molecular formula
`C_(3)H_(6)O`. But 1-propanal contains aldehyde (-CHO) functional group and acetone contains keto (-CO-) functional group. Isomerism appears between these two compound due to variable positioning of oxygen atom.

Therefore they are isomeric to each other.
