Carboxylic acids have higher boiling points than aldehydes, ketones and even alcohols of comparable molecular mass. It is due to their
Formation of intramolecular H-bonding
Formation of intermolecular H-bonding
Formation of intermolecular H-bonding
More extensive association of carboxylic acid via Vander Waals force of attraction
Compound A, C8H10O, is found to react with NaOI (produced by reacting Y with NaOH) and yields a yellow precipitate with characteristic smell. A and Y are respectively
The product of acid hydrolysis of (P) and (Q) can be distinguished by
Lucas reagent

Fehling's solution
Because Fehling solution cannot be reduced with acetone. Thus, used to differentiate ketone (acetone) and aldehyde.
Clemmensen reaction of the ketone is carried out in the presence of
