(a)
Interpretation:
(
Concept Introduction:
Addition of an O atom into a molecule is known as oxidation. If a carbonyl atom consists of a hydrogen atom directly connected to the carbonyl C; it will be oxidized in the presence of an oxidizing agent and give the respective carboxylic acid.
In the below diagram R is an alkyl group in both aldehyde and carboxylic acid compound.
(b)
Interpretation:
Aldehyde should be identified in order to prepare
