An organic compound whose functional group is carboxyl

Answer»

ong>Answer:

The CONJUNCTION of a carbonyl and a hydroxyl group forms a functional group known as a carboxyl group. The hydrogen of a carboxyl group can be REMOVED (to form a NEGATIVELY charged carboxylate ion), and thus molecules containing the carboxyl group have acidic PROPERTIES and are generally known as carboxylic acids.
