Embibe Experts Solutions for Chapter: Aldehydes, Ketones and Carboxylic Acids, Exercise 1: ICSE-2018

Write chemical equations to illustrate the name reaction rosenmund’s reduction.

Write chemical equations to illustrate the name reaction HVZ reaction.

Explain why acetaldehyde undergoes aldol condensation, but formaldehyde does not.

Explain why acetic acid is a weaker acid as compared to formic acid.

 Identify the compounds A, B, C and D in the given reaction:

How will you obtain propan-2-ol from grignard’s reagent ? (Give balanced chemical equations).

Identify the compounds A, B, C and D. 

A ketone A $\left({\mathrm{C}}_4{\mathrm{H}}_8\mathrm{O}\right)$ which undergoes Iodoform reaction gives compound B on reduction. B on heating with conc.${\mathrm{H}}_2{\mathrm{SO}}_4$ at $443 \mathrm{K}$ gives a compound C which forms ozonide D. D on hydrolysis with $\mathrm{Zn}$ dust gives only E. Identify the compounds A to E. Write the Iodoform reaction with compound A.
