Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To arrange the given carbonyl compounds in increasing order of their reactivity in nucleophilic addition reactions, we need to consider the nature of the carbonyl compounds involved, specifically aldehydes and ketones, and the effects of substituents on their reactivity. ### Part (i): Ethanal, Propanal, Propanone, Butane 1. **Identify the Compounds**: - Ethanal (acetaldehyde) - CH3CHO - Propanal (propionaldehyde) - CH3CH2CHO - Propanone (acetone) - CH3COCH3 ...
