SECTION-C
12. Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow :

Aldehydes, ketones and carboxylic acids are some of the important

classes of organic compounds containing carbonyl group. These are highly
-
polar molecules due to higher electro negativity of oxygen relative to
carbon in the carbonyl group. Aldehydes are prepared by dehydrogenation
or controlled oxidation of primary alcohols and controlled reduction of acyl
halides. Ketones are prepared by oxidation of secondary alcohols and
hydration of alkynes.
undergo nucleophilic addition reactions onto
Aldehydes and ketones
xylic acid does not undergo nucleophilic
the carbon yl group but carbo
hydrogens of aldehydes and ketones are
addition reaction. The alpha (a) -
and ketones having at least one a-hydrogen
acidic. Therefore aldehydes
.
undergo Aldo! condensation

 Aldehydes are easily oxidised by mild oxidising agents such as
Tollens' reagent and Fehling's reagent. Carboxylic acids are prepared by
the oxidation of primary alcohols, aldehydes and by hydrolysis of nitriles.
Aromatic carboxy lic acids are prepared by side-chain oxidation of alkyl
benzenes. Carboxylic acids are considerably more acidic than alcohols and
most of simple phenols.
