Vedclass · Answer

(D) Propanal is an aldehyde,while propanone is a ketone. $1$. Fehling's solution and Tollens reagent are used to distinguish aldehydes from ketones; propanal gives a positive test (red precipitate with Fehling's,silver mirror with Tollens),while propanone does not. $2$. $I_2 / NaOH$ (Iodoform test) is used to distinguish methyl ketones from other carbonyl compounds; propanone gives a yellow precipitate of iodoform,while propanal does not. Since all these reagents can distinguish between the two compounds,the correct answer is $D$.

Which of the following reagents can distinguish between propanal and propanone?
