Question

Which of the following is the formula of a staturated aliphatic aldehyde?

• A. $C_5{H}_{11}O$
• B. $C_6{H}_{13}O$
• C. $C_5{H}_{10}O$
• D. $C_6{H}_{14}O$

Answer 1

The correct option is C $C_5{H}_{10}O$

Saturated aldehydes have the
Molecular formula $C_n{H}_{2n}O$
$\therefore C_5{H}_{10}O$
