Which of the following organic compounds answers to both iodoform test and Fehling's test?
- A Ethanol
- B Methanal
- C Ethanal
- D Propanone
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) Ethanal
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The compound which contains \(-\mathrm{COCH}_{3}\) group in its structure, give positive iodoform test and the compound which contains - CHO group give positive Fehling test.
In ethanal, \(\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{CHO}\) both the groups are present, hence it responds to both iodoform test and Fehling's test.
In ethanal, \(\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{CHO}\) both the groups are present, hence it responds to both iodoform test and Fehling's test.
