What is the pH of propanal?

1 Answer

Answer :

Propanal itself does not have a pH. This is because pH is onlyused for aqueous (water) solutions and propanal is not water. Ifadded to water, then the pH of that solution would be very slightlyacidic (<7).

Last Answer : C-atom of carbonyl group of benzaldehyde is less electrophilic than C-atom of carbonyl group in propanal. Polarity of carbonyl group is in benzaldehyde reduced due to resonance making it less ... group in it is more than in benzaldehyde. This makes propanal more reactive than benzaldehyde.
