Question:
Which of the following contains a carbonyl group (C=O)?
A. an alcohol
B. a ketone
C. an ether
D. an amine
Organic Compounds:
Organic compounds are a special class of compounds in which they cannot be classified exclusively as ionic or covalent compounds because organic compounds may be other of the two. The only requirement for a compound to be considered an organic compound is for it to have carbon atoms in it. However, some other carbon-containing compounds including carbon dioxide and carbonic acid are not considered organic compounds.
