I think ketones are slightly basic due to the resonance of the doule bond in the carbonyl functional group. This will leave a negative charge on the oxygen making it capable of acting as a weak Lewis base.
Secondary and tertiary alcohols can form ketones. A primary alcohol will form an aldehyde.
ketones
Ketones.
ketones
Such compounds are usually Ketones or esters as in flowers.
ketones and aldehydes
Ketones are substances created during the breakdown of fat in order to become energy when there is not enough sugar in the body. Ketones can be found in the blood or in the urine.
No
Yes, metabolism of fats is a reason and can cause the presence of ketones and can lower pH levels. To make it simple, ketones form from rapid or incomplete oxidation (breaking down) of fats from the liver and forms ketones. Ketones are strong acids and this is why it can cause a lowering of pH in the urine.
This would mean that there would be four or more ketones (C=O) in a molecule.
Basic urinalysis usually looks at pH, osmolality, osmolarity, specific gravity, along with presents of proteins, glucose, ketones, blood and erythrocytes.
Ketones or Aldehydes DO NOT react with Sodium Bicarbonate..generally only Carboxilic acids have the ability to do it!
ketones
NO they do not
Zero.
A Silver mirror does not appear as ketones cannot be further oxidized unlike aldehydes in which a silver mirror does appear.
