Solution

The correct answers are:

  • A functional group is an atom or group of atoms with characteristic chemical properties.

Functional groups are specific groups of atoms within molecules that are responsible for the characteristic chemical reactions of those molecules. They are not defined by their physical properties, but rather their chemical properties. Also, a functional group is not just a single atom, but a group of atoms.
