\({C_2}{H_5}CHO\) and \({(C{H_3})_2}CO\) can be distinguished by testing with
1 Phenyl hydrazine
2 Hydroxylamine
3 Fehling solution
4 Sodium bisulphite
Explanation:
(c)\({C_2}{H_5}CHO + 2C{u^{ + 2}} + 5O{H^ - } \to \mathop {C{u_2}O}\limits_{{\mathop{\rm Re}\nolimits} d\,\,ppt} + 3{H_2}O\)
\( + {C_2}{H_5}CO{O^ - }\)
\(C{H_3}COC{H_3} + 2C{u^{ + 2}} + 5O{H^ - } \to {\rm{No}}\,\,{\rm{reaction}}\)
