Solution
The compound X contains an alcohol group and a carbonyl group. The alcohol group is primary because it is attached to a carbon atom that is itself attached to only one other carbon atom. The carbonyl group is an aldehyde because it is at the end of the carbon chain. Therefore, the correct row is A: primary alcohol group and aldehyde carbonyl group.
