Expert Answer

Keto acids are organic acids containing a ketone functional group and a carboxylic acid  group.

eg.Pyruvic acid (CH 3 COCO 2 H) is an alpha-keto acid

(α-)Hydroxy acids, or alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), are a class of chemical compounds that consist of a carboxylic acid substituted with a hydroxy group(OH) on the adjacent carbon.

Hi sir, Good evening  I have one doubt regarding to Hybridisation. In the hybridisation phenomenon, only the central atom's orbitals get hybridized and form hybrid orbitals then what about the surrounding atom's orbitals they won't get hybridized. For example in a BF3 molecule what about Fluorine hybridization and in a CO2 molecule what about the oxygen atom's orbital hybridization?  Please give clarity on this sir. Thank you sir.
