Question:
The product formed in Aldol condensation is
The product formed in Aldol condensation is
Updated On: Nov 11, 2024
- an alpha beta unsaturated ester
- a beta hydroxy acid
- A beta hydroxy aldehyde or a beta hydroxy ketone
- an alpha hydroxy aldehyde or ketone
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
Condensation between two molecules of an aldehyde or a ketone having atleast one $\alpha$-hydrogen atom in presence of a base to form a $\beta$-hydroxy aldehyde or $\beta$-hydroxy ketone is known as aldol condensation. Aldol condensation are divided into two parts one is self aldol condensation and another is cross-aldol condensation, when both molecules are same called self aldol and vice versa.

- An oxygen cylinder of volume 30 litre has 18.20 moles of oxygen. After some oxygen is withdrawn from the cylinder, its gauge pressure drops to 11 atmospheric pressure at temperature \(27^\circ\)C. The mass of the oxygen withdrawn from the cylinder is nearly equal to: [Given, \(R = \frac{100}{12} \text{ J mol}^{-1} \text{K}^{-1}\), and molecular mass of \(O_2 = 32 \text{ g/mol}\), 1 atm pressure = \(1.01 \times 10^5 \text{ N/m}^2\)]
