Question

An organic compound in which a carbonyl group is bonded to one carbon atom and one hydrogen atom is a(n) amide. aldehyde. ketone. ester.

Answer 1

that's an aldehyde. As an functional group, they will always have the shape O=CH

Answer 2

Answer: aldehyde

Explanation:

Functional groups are specific group of atoms within molecules that are responsible for the characteristic chemical reactions of those molecules.

1. Amides have functional group $-O=C-NH_2$.

Example: Ethanamide with molecular formula $CH_3CONH_2$

2. Aledydes have functional group $-O=CH$.

Example: Ethanal with molecular formula $CH_3CHO$

3. Ketones have functional group $-C=O$.

Example: Propanone with molecular formula $CH_3COCH_3$

4. Esters have functional group $-O=C-OR$.

Example: methyl ethanoate with molecular formula $CH_3COOCH_3$
