### Question 13

**Question:**  
How many signals would be present in the \( ^1\text{H NMR} \)?

**Molecule Structure:**  
The structure is a ketone with a central carbonyl group. The molecule has a total of four carbon atoms arranged as follows:
- The carbonyl group (C=O) is attached to:
  - A methyl group (CH₃) on one side.
  - A methine group (CH) with one hydrogen and two methyl groups attached (isopropyl group) on the other side.

**Answer Choices:**  
- ○ 4  
- ○ none of the above  
- ○ 3  
- ○ 2  

**Explanation:**  
The question involves determining the number of distinct hydrogen environments in the given molecule, which would correspond to the number of signals in a \( ^1\text{H NMR} \) spectrum. Analyze the symmetry and the distinct types of hydrogen atoms present in the molecule to choose the correct answer.
