CH4
Functional groups are responsible for chemical reactions of molecules.
Aldehyde (functional group). The molecule responsible is cinnamaldehyde.
Chiral carbon is the carbon which is connected to four different groups in a molecule.
Lactones can be formed from the reaction of a hydroxy group of a molecule with a carboxylic acid functional group on the same molecule.
Functional
Aminos, phosphates, and carbonyls.

Functional groups are such atoms.
Functional groups help to determine how the molecule reacts. For instance, if a carbon chain has a large number of methyl groups, then you would know that the molecule would be hydrophobic and found in a hydrophobic environment. On the other hand, if a carbon chain had a carboxyl group, then it would be found in a hydrophilic environment and would make the solution acidic. In addition to determine what kind of solutions they would be found in, functional groups indicate what the molecule will react with and what it will bind to.

Aldehyde (functional group). The molecule responsible is cinnamaldehyde.
Both carbon skeletons and functional groups put together, add, or have atomos of oxygen, hydrogen, and carbon. Different arrangements of atoms bonded to a carbon skeleton can form functional groups, wich give specific properties to molecules.
