Carboxylic acids do not give the characteristic reactions of gt C =O group because of:

Carboxylic acids donot give the characteristic reactions of carbonyl group. Explain.

Assertion : Carbxoylic acids donot give characteristic reactions of carbonyl group. Reason : The carbonyl group is sterically hindered in carboxylic acid.

Assertion : Carboxylic acids contain a carbonyl group but donot give the characteristic reactions of the group. Reason : The electrophilicity of the carbon atom is more in carboxylic acids than in aldehydes and ketones.

Statement 1: Carboxylic acids do not give characterstic reactions of carbonyl group. Statement 2 : Carboxylic acids exist as cyclic dimers in solid, liquid and even in vapour state
