Question
Chapter 14, Problem 14.2E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The structural formulas for an aldehyde and a ketone containing as few carbon atoms as possible are to be drawn.
Concept introduction:
A carbonyl group has a carbon atom that is bonded to an oxygen atom through a double bond and single bonded to two other carbon atoms respectively.

Write structural formulas for three ketones that have the formula C5H10O.
Both aldehydes and ketones contain carbonyl groups. In aldehydes, the carbonyl carbon atom is bonded to a hydrogen atom, whereas in ketones, the carbonyl carbon atom is bonded to another carbon atom.
Select the true statements about aldehydes and ketones.
- Ketones have lower boiling points than alcohols of similar size.
- Aldehydes contain a carbon–oxygen double bond.
- Butanal has a higher boiling point than 2-butanol.
- Aldehydes with more than five carbon atoms are soluble in water, but not organic solvents.
- Both aldehydes and ketones can hydrogen bond with water molecules.
- Propanal is a gas at room temperature, whereas formaldehyde (methanal) is a liquid at room temperature.
Ethanol is the alcohol found in all alcoholic beverages. Discuss how an alcoholic beverage would be different if it
contained ethane instead of ethanol.
In the online portion of the test, you were asked to rank 1-pentene, 1-pentanol, and pentanal in order from lowest
to highest boiling point. Explain the reasons for the boiling point ranking.
Compare and contrast alcohols with aldehydes/ketones. List at least 3 similarities and 3 differences.
