Give a clear explanation handwritten answer...complete the following reaction
Give correct detailed Solution with explanation needed..don't give Handwritten answer..
Why is carbonyl group considered as an electron-withdrawing group?
Because its carbon atom is partially positive, pulling electrons closer to it.
Because oxygen atom is more electronegative than carbon atom, pulling the electrons closer to it and away from other atoms bonded to carbon.
Only the 1st and the 2nd statements are acceptable.
Because oxygen has extra lone pairs resulting to electron clouds surrounding it; thus, electrons are said to be withdrawn by the oxygen atom.
None of the statements best describes its property.
