(i) `CH_(3)-CO-CH_(2)CH_(3)` and `CH_(3)-CH_(2)-CH_(2)-CHO`

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To distinguish between the compounds `CH₃-CO-CH₂CH₃` (butan-2-one) and `CH₃-CH₂-CH₂-CHO` (butanal), we can use the Iodoform test, which is a qualitative test for the presence of methyl ketones and certain aldehydes. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Compounds:** - The first compound `CH₃-CO-CH₂CH₃` is butan-2-one, which is a ketone. - The second compound `CH₃-CH₂-CH₂-CHO` is butanal, which is an aldehyde. ...
