Answer 2

Answer : A Ketone is an organic compound in which a carbonyl group is bonded to two different carbon atoms.

Explanation :

A Ketone is an organic compound having a structure $R-CO-R^'$ where R and R' can be different carbon containing substituents.

Ketone is a compound in which the a carbonyl group is bonded to the two different carbon atoms which are R and R' and there is a double bond present between the carbon and oxygen atom.
