Textbook Question
Chapter 14, Problem 14.37E
A stockroom assistant prepares three bottles, each containing one of the following compounds:
However, the bottles are left unlabeled. Instead of discarding the samples, another assistant runs tests on the contents, using Tollens’ and Benedict’s reagents. Match the compound to the bottle, based on these results.
| Tollen’s Reagent | Benedict’s Reagent | |
| Bottle A | A dark precipitate forms | A red-orange precipitate forms |
| Bottle B | No reaction | No reaction |
| Bottle C | A dark precipitate and slight mirror form |
No reaction |
