Answer» Option is (2) carboxylic acid.

Explanation

Ratio of number of atoms of carbon and Hydrogen in the molecule suggests the presence of one double bond. Diols have no double bond . Again each of diketone and dialdehyde has got two double bonds as C=O group.

Only carboxylic acid has one double bond in its carbonyl group attached with hydroxyl group.
