`C_(3)H_(6)O` did not give a silver mirror test with Tollen 's reagent but gave an oxime with hydroxylamine . It can give positive

A

Iodoform test

B

Fehling's test

C

Schiff's test

D

Carbylamine test.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Since `C_(3)H_(6)O` does not give silver mirrir test , it can not be an aldehyde . As it gives oxime with hydroxyylamine , it must be ketone.
`thereforeC_(3)H_(6)O` is `CH_(3)COCH_(3)` which gives iodoform test .
