Concept Introduction:
Oxidation: Generally alcohols can be oxidized to
In aldehyde oxidation the hydrogen bonded to the carbonyl carbon is replaced by a hydroxyl group. Moreover
(b)
Interpretation:
The Hexanal treated with Tollens reagent and Benedict’s reagent it will give positive result (or) negative result it should be identified.
Concept Introduction:
Tollens reagent: This test is used in
Benedict’s reagent: This reagent was extensively used as a test for surges in the urine, which are primarily aldehyde and alpha hydroxyl ketones.
(c)
Interpretation:
Given molecule (c) treated with Tollens reagent and Benedict’s reagent it will give positive result (or) negative result it should be identified.
Concept Introduction:
Tollens reagent: This test is used in organic chemistry to test for the presence of aldehydes. In this reaction, an aldehyde is oxidized to a carboxylic acid while the
