The number of carbonyl carbon in the product $X$ is
$Propyne \to_{{Zn/H}_{2} O}^{O_{3} {/CH}_{2} {Cl}_{2},Δ} X$

Question

The number of carbonyl carbon in the product X is Propyne → Zn/H 2 O O 3 /CH 2 Cl 2 ,Δ X,

MARKS App · Accepted Answer

Ozonolysis of propyne results in the formation of 2 -oxopropanal which contains keto group and aldehyde ( - C H O ) group. Hence, 2 -oxopropanal contains two carbon atoms.
