Answer 1

The correct option is A 1-R, 2-T, 3-S, 4-P, 5-Q

Acyl Halides are acyl groups which are bonded to halogen atoms.
Eg., Ethanoyl chloride
The general formula and the suffix for the functional groups are
A. Acyl Halide- RCOX- oyl halide
B. Alcohol -RCOH- ol
C. Ketone- RCOR’-one
D. Carboxylic acid RCOOH-oic acid
E. Ester- RCOOR’- oate
