Question #de7c2

Answer 1

In a way it does, but it would be named differently.

Explanation:

Methoxy means `CH_3-O-`
Methanal means `-CH=O`

If we put this together we get:

`CH_3-O-CH=O`

Which is just the same as:

`HCOOCH_3`

Which will be called methyl methanoate, because the C-atom that has the doubly bound O, also has the singly bound oxy group, and they combine to represent the -oate group.
It is also called methyl formate, being an ester of formic acid `HCOOH` and methanol `CH_3OH`
