Positive Tollen's test is observed for

A

B

C

D

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, B, C

`alpha,beta`-unsaturated aldehydes, aromatic aldehydes and `alpha`-hydroxyketones all give tollens' test but ketones (including `alpha,beta`-unsaturated) do not give this test. Thus, option (a,b and c) are correct.
