Q
  • One of the two additional bonds that the carbonyl carbon atoms forms must be to a hydrogen atom and the other may be to a hydrogen atom, an alkyl or cycloalkyl group, or an aromatic ring system.
  • The C in the notation RCHO is the carbonyl carbon atom. It is bonded to the R group (single bond), the H atom (single bond), and the O atom (double bond).
