QAIPM-2001-Ch-2876: NEET 2001 Chemistry - Class 12 AIPM-2001-Ch-2876 Solution: Which of the following is incorrect?
Which of the following is incorrect?
Multiple Choice Options
- A is used in detection of phenol.
- B Fehling solution is used in detection of glucose
- C Tollen's reagent is used in detection of unsaturation.
- D is used in detection of carbonyl compound.
Step-by-Step Verified Solution
Tollen's reagent is used to detect aldehydic
group. Tollen's reagent is an ammonical solution
of silver nitrate. When aldehyde is added to
