A) \[C{{H}_{3}}COO{{H}_{3}}\],
B) \[C{{H}_{3}}CHO\]
C) \[C{{H}_{3}}CON{{H}_{2}}\],
D) \[C{{H}_{3}}COOH\]
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
Tollen's reagent is a mild oxidising agent and oxidizes only aldehydes to form silver mirror. It is used to differentiate between aldehydes and ketones \[RCHO\,+2[Ag{{(N{{H}_{3}})}_{2}}]OH\xrightarrow{\,}\,RCOON{{H}_{4}}\] \[\,+2Ag\downarrow \,+3N{{H}_{3}}\]\[+{{H}_{2}}O\]You need to login to perform this action.
