    Butanone: Identifying the Ketone Functional Group - Properties & Structure
    Butanone is a member of the ketone functional group.

    Here's why:

    * Ketones are characterized by a carbonyl group (C=O) bonded to two carbon atoms.

    * Butanone has the chemical formula CH₃COCH₂CH₃. The "CO" in the middle represents the carbonyl group, which is attached to two carbon atoms.
