Correct answer: A, B, C
The question asks: Positive Tollen’s test is observed for. However, the actual compounds corresponding to options A, B, C, D are missing in the prompt.
1. Principle of Tollen’s test
Tollen’s reagent is ammoniacal silver nitrate, which oxidizes suitable compounds and gives a silver mirror or black precipitate of silver.
A positive Tollen’s test is generally shown by:
- Aldehydes
- Formic acid and compounds that can be oxidized similarly
- $-hydroxy ketones (via enediol formation in basic medium)
- Some reducing sugars
Ordinary ketones usually do not give Tollen’s test.
2. Limitation here
Since the structures/options are not provided, it is not possible to independently verify whether options A, B, C are indeed the correct set.
3. Comparison with stored answer
The stored correct answer is A, B, C, but without seeing the actual option contents, I cannot rigorously derive or confirm that selection from chemistry principles applied to the given choices.
Therefore, I must mark that I cannot verify agreement confidently from the incomplete data.
