Formaldehyde and benzaldehyde give cannizzaro reaction but acetaldehyde does not. Explain

Statement -I: Propanal undergoes Cannizzaro 's reaction. Statement -II It has an alpha - hydrogen atom.

Statement :I :Benzaldehyde undergoes aldol condensation. Statement -II: It does not contain any prop - hydrogen atom.

Statement-I: Benzaldehyde does not undergoes aldol condensation. Because Statement-II: Benzaldehyde does not contains acidic alpha- Hydrogen.

Statement-I: Fehiling's solution can be used to distinguish benzaldehyde from acetaldehyde. Because Statement-II: Both benzaldehyde and acetaldehyde reduces tollen's reagent.
