Acetaldehyde is an Aldehyde, while Propanol is an Alcohol.
Acetaldehyde = CH3CHO , Propanol = C3H7OH .
Acetaldehyde = Ethanal , Propanol = Propan-1-ol.

∙ 12y agoThe functional group of aldehyde is -CH=O (Ketone) and for alcohol -OH (Hydroxyl).
The basic hydrocarbon Methane (CH4). The basic compound in aldehyde is Formaldehyde (H-CHO) and it can be used as Embalming the dead body. If we add aldehyde group instead of H (hydrogen in methane) that can be called as acetaldehyde.
But in alcohol, CH3-OH - Methanol is the most basic alcohol. It is easy to transport, readily available, and has a high octane rating that allows for superior vehicle performance compared to gasoline.

What is the difference between a hemiacetal and a hemiketal?
I think :Hemiacetal = aldehyde+ alcoholHemiketal = keton+ alcohol
A dehydration reaction occurring between two primary alcohol molecules will produce what?
aldehyde
What compound is produced in the reaction between an alcohol and an aldehyde?
The nucleophilic oxygen in the alcohol can attack the carbonyl carbon of the aldehyde to form an ester. This reaction can be carried out under acidic conditions.
Does C2H5OH represents an aldehyde?
No - it represent s an alcohol (ethanol to be specific). The formula for the equivalent aldehyde, ethanal, would be c2h4oh.
What is a Cannizzaro reaction?
A Cannizzaro reaction is the disproportionation of an aldehyde into an alcohol and carboxylic acid.

Difference between aromatic and aliphatic aldehyde?
Aromatic aldehydes are cuter.
What is the difference between an aldehyde sugar and a ketone sugar?
The location of the Carbonyl Group (-OH)
Mild oxidation of a primary alcohol gives an?
Aldehyde
Does C2H5OH represents an aldehyde?
No - it represent s an alcohol (ethanol to be specific). The formula for the equivalent aldehyde, ethanal, would be c2h4oh.
Catalytic dehydrogenation of primary alcohol gives?
aldehyde -rajasingh
The first stage in the oxidation of a primary alcohol produces a?
aldehyde
What functional groups are in vanillin?
alcohol, aldehyde, aromatic, ether
Reaction between alcohol and fehling's solution?
a red precipitate is formed which indicates the presence of aldehyde.
Galactose contains which functional groups?
I believe it contains Aldehyde and alcohol
