Answer:
Check the explanation
Explanation:
In the field of organic chemistry, keto–enol tautomerism refers to equilibrium of chemical substance that is among a keto form (an aldehyde or a ketone) and an enol (an alcohol). The enol and the keto forms are believed to be tautomers of each other. The keto form preponderate at equilibrium for a large amount of ketones.
