Select the correct statement about a carboxylic acid, R-overset(O)overset(||)C-O-H

Carboxylic acids do not give the.characteristic reactions of carbonyl group. Explain.

Assertion : Carboxylic acids contain a carbonyl group but do not give characteristic reaction of the carbonyl group. Reason : The electrophilicity of the carbonyl carbon is more in carbocylic acids than in aldehydes and ketones.

Statement 1 : Acetoacetic ester (CH_(3)COCH_(2)COOC_(2)H_(5)) contains CH_(3)CO group but does not give iodoform test. Statement 2 : The H-atoms of the CH_(3) group are more acidic than those of CH_(2) group.

In the Cannizzaro reaction 2 Ph+CHO overset(overset(Θ)OH) rarr Ph-CH_2 OH+PhCOO the slowest step is : the attack of -OH at the carbonyl group, the transfer of hydride ion to the carboxylic acid, the abstraction of proton from the carboxylic acid, the deprotonation of the Ph CH_2 OH

Paragraph Carboxylic acids are distinctly acidic because they ionize in water to give hydronium ions: RCOOH+H_(2)O hArr RCOO^(-) +H_(3)O^(+) The acidic strength depends upon the extent of ionizations of the acid and the stability of the anion formed. The acidic strength can also be expressed in terms of dissociation constant K_(a) or pK_(a) which are related as pK_(a)= -log K_(a) . Most unsubstituted carboxylic acids have K_(a) values in the range of 10^(-4) to 10^(-5) (pK_(a) =4-5) . The substitutents have marked effect on the acidic strength of carboxylic acids. Any group that stabilizes the carboxylate ion more than the carboxylic acid group will increase the acidic strength, and the group which destabilizes the carboxylate group more than the carboxylic acid group will decrease the acidic strength. In a similar manner, the electron-releasing groups makes benzoic acid weaker, while the electron-withdrawing groups make benzoic acid stronger. The ortho isomer of every substituted benzoic acid (whether electron releasing or electron withdrawing) is the strongest among the three isomers due to ortho effect. Which of the following statement is not correct?

Which of the following statements regarding carbonyl group is not correct? The carbon atom of the carbonyl group in aldehydes and ketones is sp^(2) hybridised, The carbon atom of the carbonyl group in the transition state formed during the addition reaction across it sp^(3) hybridised, An aryl group stabilizes an aldehyde more than the transition state, The aryl group in aromatic aldehydes speeds up the addition reaction across the carbonyl group
