Which of the following is incorrect?

  1. FeCl3 is used in detection of phenol.
  2. Fehling's solution is used in detection of glucose.
  3. Tollens' reagent is used in detection of unsaturation.
  4. NaHSO3 is used in detection of carbonyl compound.

Answer

(3) Tollens' reagent is used in detection of unsaturation.

Solution

(1) Phenol gives a violet colour with neutral FeCl3 solution ⇒ correct.

(2) Glucose (a reducing sugar, –CHO group) reduces Fehling's solution to a red precipitate of Cu2O ⇒ correct.

(3) Tollens' reagent (ammoniacal silver nitrate) is used to detect aldehydes (silver mirror test), not unsaturation; unsaturation is detected by bromine water or Baeyer's reagent ⇒ incorrect.

(4) Aldehydes and ketones form crystalline addition products with NaHSO3 ⇒ correct.

Answer: (3)
