The correct Answer is:
To solve the question "Which of the following statement is not correct?", we will analyze each of the provided options one by one. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Analyze Option 1**: - The statement claims that "Tollens reagent is used in the detection of unsaturation." - **Explanation**: Tollens reagent is primarily used to detect aldehydes and some alpha-hydroxy ketones. It does not detect unsaturation (alkenes or alkynes). Therefore, this statement is incorrect. 2. **Analyze Option 2**: - The statement claims that "Fehling's solution is used for the detection of glucose." - **Explanation**: Fehling's solution is indeed used to detect reducing sugars, including glucose, which contains an aldehyde group. This statement is correct. 3. **Analyze Option 3**: - The statement claims that "Neutral FeCl3 is used in the detection of phenol." - **Explanation**: Neutral FeCl3 (ferric chloride) is used to test for phenolic compounds, producing a violet complex. This statement is also correct. 4. **Analyze Option 4**: - The statement claims that "NaHSO3 is used in the detection of Carbonyl Compounds." - **Explanation**: Sodium bisulfite (NaHSO3) reacts with carbonyl compounds (like aldehydes and ketones) to form bisulfite addition products. This statement is correct as well. ### Conclusion: After analyzing all the options, we find that the only incorrect statement is from **Option 1**: "Tollens reagent is used in the detection of unsaturation." ### Final Answer: **Option 1** is the statement that is not correct. ---
