Interpretation:
The compounds that will react with the Tollen’s solution has to be chosen from the given options.
Concept Introduction:
In
In organic chemistry, reduction reaction is referred to the number
Alcohols undergo
Aldehyde undergoes oxidation to give carboxylic acid as the product while ketone does not undergo oxidation reaction.
Tollen’s test:
This is also known as silver mirror test. The reagent that is used in Tollen’s test is silver nitrate and ammonia in water. Aldehyde reacts with Tollen’s reagent, where the silver ion is reduced to silver metal and the aldehyde is oxidized to carboxylic acid.
Ketone does not undergo Tollen’s test to deposit silver metal.
Benedict’s test:
This test is also similar to Tollen’s test. In this test,
