Answer : The correct option is, (C) a carbon chain with a carbonyl group bonded to one end.

Explanation :

An aldehyde is an organic compound which contain a functional group with (-CHO) i.e R-CHO

R-CHO functional group consists of a carbonyl center that means a carbon which is double-bonded to the oxygen. The carbon of this carbonyl group bonded with the hydrogen to one end and a carbon chain, (R) to another end.

Some examples of an aldehydes are formaldehyde $(HCHO)$ , acetaldehyde $(CH_3CHO)$

Therefore, the correct answer is, (C)

A hydrocarbon is a molecule whose structure includes only hydrogen and carbon atoms. Hydrocarbons containing between six and ten carbon molecules are the top components of most fuels. In general, these molecules are burned to produce energy. Examples such include: 1. Methane: A fuel in electrical generation. 2. Propane: Generally used heating and cooking. 3. Butane: Generally used in lighters and aerosol cans. 4.Heptane: The major component of gasoline Hydrocarbons are majorly used as a combustible fuel source and are considered a primary source of energy for contemporary civilizations. Oil is an excellent example of a hydrocarbon fuel currently in use all over the world.
