Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A polyfunctional compound is one that contains two or more functional groups. Compound 1 contains only one functional group (carboxylic acid), compound 2 contains two functional groups (alcohol and ether), and compound 3 contains three functional groups (two alcohols and a carboxylic acid). Therefore, compound 3 is the only one that would be considered polyfunctional.
