Sample Questions

1multiple choice

What is the product of the reaction: Acetaldehyde + HCN →?

Show answer

CH3CH(OH)CN (lactonitrile)

HCN adds to acetaldehyde in nucleophilic addition to give CH3CH(OH)CN (lactonitrile or acetaldehyde cyanohydrin).

2multiple choice

Aldehydes give a silver mirror with Tollens' reagent. This is because they are:

Show answer

Reducing agents

Aldehydes are oxidised to carboxylic acids by Tollens' reagent (ammoniacal AgNO3), reducing Ag+ to Ag (silver mirror). They act as reducing agents.

3multiple choice

What is the product of aldol condensation of acetaldehyde (CH3CHO) with dilute NaOH?

Show answer

3-hydroxybutanal (aldol)

2 CH3CHO (dilute NaOH) → CH3CH(OH)CH2CHO (3-hydroxybutanal = aldol). This is the classic aldol condensation product.

4multiple choice

Which of the following does NOT reduce Fehling's solution?

Show answer

Benzaldehyde (C6H5CHO)

Aromatic aldehydes (like benzaldehyde) do NOT reduce Fehling's or Benedict's solution. Only aliphatic aldehydes give red Cu2O precipitate.
