B
Amine
C
Alcohol
D
Ether
Verified step by step guidance
1
Identify the functional groups listed: Ketone, Amine, Alcohol, and Ether.
Recall the general structure of each functional group: Ketones have a carbonyl group (C=O) bonded to two carbons, Alcohols have an -OH group, Ethers have an oxygen atom connected to two alkyl or aryl groups, and Amines contain nitrogen atoms bonded to carbon and/or hydrogen.
Focus on the presence of nitrogen (N) in the functional groups. Among these, only Amines contain nitrogen atoms as part of their structure.
Confirm that Ketones, Alcohols, and Ethers do not contain nitrogen atoms in their functional groups.
Conclude that the functional group containing nitrogen is the Amine.
