What functional group contains 1 C atom and 3 H atoms?
A methyl group.
Functional group in methyl orange?
Methyl orange is red under a pH=3,1 and yellow over a pH=4,4; methyl orange is useful for the titrimetric determination of acids concentration.
Acetone contains which functional group?
This is actually an organic chemistry question, but it is a Methyl Ketone.
What are the functional group present in caffeine?
The functional groups present in caffeine are alkene, amide, and amine.
What is the difference between methyl stearate and hexadecanoic acid isopropyl ester?
One side methyl group- otherwise virtually identical identical- formula is the same. I bet the properties are very close. That methyl group in isopropyl hexadeconoate probably has a bit more effect on the oxyl main chain than if it was far away- probably slightly more acidic.
Is Methyl the functional group that is commonly found in alcohols?
No, methyl is not a functional group commonly found in alcohols. The functional group that is commonly found in alcohols is the hydroxyl group (-OH). Methyl, on the other hand, is a functional group commonly found in compounds called methyl groups (-CH3).
What functional group contains 1 C atom and 3 H atoms?
A methyl group.
What is the name of this compound---HCOOCH3----and the functional group present in it this compound reacts only with Na and not with any other forms of sodium compounds?
This is methyl formate an ester it does not react with Na but hydrolysed into methyl alcohol and formic acid with aqueous NaOH
What is a functional group which contains 1 Carbon atom 3 Hydrogen atoms?
The group -CH3 is named methyl.
What elements are in methyl alcohol?
Methyl alcohol, or methanol, has the formula CH4O, or CH3OH. It contains the elements carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. The functional group that makes it an alcohol is the -OH group.
Functional group in methyl orange?
Methyl orange is red under a pH=3,1 and yellow over a pH=4,4; methyl orange is useful for the titrimetric determination of acids concentration.
Acetone contains which functional group?
This is actually an organic chemistry question, but it is a Methyl Ketone.
What are the functional group present in caffeine?
The functional groups present in caffeine are alkene, amide, and amine.
What is the functional group of urea?
urea has a carbonyl functional group present in it i.e C=O

What functional group is present in 2-propanone?
ketone
What is the functional group in ibuprofen?
The functional groups of anything are the croups that aren't normal alkane (single carbon-hydrogen bonds) groups. In the case of Ibuprofen there are two functional groups. The first is the aromatic group or Benzene ring in the centre of the structure. The second is the carboxylic acid group (Oxygen double bonded to two
