• A. Carbon-oxygen double bond is polar but carbon-carbon double bond is non-polar
• B. Carbon oxygen bond length is $123pm$ than that of carbon-carbon bond length is $134pm$
• C. Carbonyl compounds undergo nucleophilic addition reactions but compounds containing ethylenic double bonds undergo electrophilic addition reactions
• D. All of the above

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

(i) Carbon-oxygen double bond is polar but carbon-carbon double bond is non-polar.

(ii) Carbon-oxygen bond length is $123pm$ than that of carbon-carbon bond length is $134pm$.
(iii) Carbonyl compounds undergo nucleophilic addition reactions but compounds containing ethylenic double bonds undergo electrophilic addition reactions.
