Statement I : Enolate ion is formed during aldol condensation of acetaldehydeStatement II : During Iodoform test of methyl ketones, a carboxylate ion with one carbon less is obtained

I) Hydrogen atoms of Aldehydes & Ketones are acidic in nature. In presence of base , a carbanion is developed on α - carbon which exhibits resonance. This resonance stabilized carbanion is nothing but enolate ion           II)…..   R-CO-CH3→NaOCl R -COO- +CHCl3
