A carbonyl group (C=O) is the functional group found in a ketone. It consists of a carbon atom double-bonded to an oxygen atom.
Acetone contains a carbonyl functional group, specifically a ketone group. This is characterized by a carbon double-bonded to an oxygen atom within the acetone molecule.
Reducing a ketone typically results in the formation of a secondary alcohol. This involves the addition of two hydrogen atoms to the carbonyl carbon of the ketone, resulting in the replacement of the oxygen atom with two hydrogen atoms.
An ene-one molecule must have both an alkene (ene) and a ketone (one) functional group. The alkene functional group is characterized by a carbon-carbon double bond, while the ketone functional group consists of a carbon double-bonded to an oxygen and attached to two other carbon groups.

The functional group in methylenedioxypyrovalerone is a ketone group, which is a carbonyl group located within a carbon chain. The ketone group is characterized by a carbon double-bonded to an oxygen atom, with the carbon also bonded to two other carbon atoms.
A secondary alcohol undergoes oxidation to yield a ketone; a primary alcohol forms an aldehyde instead, and a tertiary alcohol usually does not form either a ketone or an alcohol, because the carbon having the OH group in a tertiary alcohol already has three bonds to other carbon atoms and therefore cannot form a double bond to oxygen without more extensive breaking of other bonds in the tertiary alcohol.
The functional group with a double bond oxygen on a middle carbon is a ketone. In a ketone, the carbon doubly bonded to the oxygen is in the center of the molecule and is attached to two other carbon groups.
Alcohol molecules contain at least one oxygen atom each, while alkanes and alkenes contain no oxygen.
The main difference between a hemiacetal and a hemiketal is the functional group involved. A hemiacetal forms when an alcohol group and an aldehyde group are involved, while a hemiketal forms when an alcohol group and a ketone group react. Additionally, in a hemiacetal, one oxygen atom is part of the alcohol group and one is part of the aldehyde group, whereas in a hemiketal, both oxygen atoms are part of the alcohol group.
No. A hydroxyl group consists of an oxygen bonded to a hydrogen (-OH). A single hydroxyl group on an alkyl chain characterizes the alcohol family of organic compounds (i.e. ethanol: CH3CH2OH).
The amino group (NH2) does not contain a carbon-oxygen double bond.
