QUESTIONS

1. A compound of molecular formula C5H10O forms a yellow precipitate with 2,4-

dinitrophenylhydrazine reagent and a yellow precipitate with reagents for iodoform
test. Draw the structural formula for this compound that fits the description. Explain
your answer.

It is a ketone since it is positive with 2,4-

dinitrophenylhydrazine and it is a methyl ketone since it's positive with iodoform test
thus the compound is 2-pentanone.
It is a linear molecule with which the oxygen is doubly bonded with the second carbon
