Read the passage carefully and answer:
Organic compounds derived from NH3 by replacing one or more H-atoms with alkyl or aryl groups will form primary, secondary and tertiary amines. The common methods which include their preparations are reduction of nitro group, amide group and nitrile group, Gabriel phthalimide synthesis and ammonolysis of alkyl halides. Amines are basic in nature due to the presence of a lone pair of electrons on the nitrogen atom. Important chemical properties of amines include acylation, alkylation and their interaction with nitrous acid. There are various tests which can distinguish different types of amines from each other, for e.g. carbylamine test, Hinsberg's test, coupling reaction etc. Another important class of compounds which can be derived from primary amines is azo compounds. These compounds are intensely colored and widely used as dyes in textile, leather and food industries.

- Answer the question on the basis of passage given below :
Aldehydes and ketones represent two essential classes of organic compounds which are extensively used in the synthesis of a wide variety of other organic molecules. Due to the inherent polarity of the central carbonyl group, these substances readily undergo nucleophilic addition reactions. Broadly speaking, these addition reactions can be categorized into two types: one in which simple addition of the nucleophilic reagent occurs across the \(> C = O\) bond, and the second type where the initial addition is subsequently followed by the elimination of a water molecule. A variety of ammonia derivatives, including hydroxylamine, hydraaine, phenylhydraxine, 2,4-dinitroplhemylhdrasine, and semicarbaside, all belong to this second category of reactions. These specific derivatives are fundamentally used for the identification and definitive characterization of aldehydes and ketones. Significantly, both types of nucleophilic addition reactions are strongly influenced by both steric and electronic factors. As a general rule, aliphatic aldehydes exhibit higher reactivity compared to aromatic aldehydes. The aliphatic aldehydes demonstrate the ability to reduce both Fehling's solution and Tollen's reagent, whereas aromatic aldehydes are limited to reducing only Tollen's reagent. In a similar manner to aldehydes, aromatic ketones are observed to be less reactive than aliphatic ketones towards all nucleophilic addition reactions. In a separate context, phenols and carboxylic acids both exhibit acidic properties in nature. Both classes of compounds readily dissolve in NaOH solution and cause blue litmus to turn red. However, carboxylic acids stand out as much stronger acids than phenols and thus can decompose sodium bicarbonate \(\left( NaHCO _3\right)\) with the distinct evolution of \(CO _2\) gas, a reaction which phenols do not undergo. It is important to note that both electron- donating and electron- withdrawing substituents significantly influence the acid strength of both aliphatic as well as aromatic carboxylic acids. Furthermore, unlike all other common aliphatic acids, formic acid uniquely possesses reducing properties and simultaneously does not display the typical reactions characteristic of the allyl group.
Which of the following statement(s) is/are correct?
A. Aldehydes give positive test with Tollen's reagent.
B. Ketones give positive test with Fehling's solution
C. Ketones do not react with Fehling's solution.
D. Aldehydes with Schiff's reagent restore pink colour
E. Ketones with Schiff's reagent restore pink colour.

A homogeneous mixture of two or more than two components has uniform composition and properties. The binary solutions have two components, which may be solid, liquid or gas. The resultant solution has a larger amount of solvent and a smaller amount of solute. The amount of solute in a given amount of solvent decides the concentration of the resulting solution. The concentration can be expressed in various ways, like molarity, molality, normality and mole fraction.
