how can I read this to determine the functional groups? I know the IHD=1 so there is a either a pi bond or a ring, I suspect pi bond at 1700,what other information helps me find functional groups?​

answer:

the answer is 6 valence electrons.

explanation:

valence is the # of electrons on the outer most shell of an atom.

oxygen has 6.

although, the valency of oxygen is 2, because it only needs to make 2 covalent bonds, or gain 2 electrons, to achieve the stable octet configuration of a noble gas.

that's it!

if you need further assistance, let me know: )
