Correct answer: 80
- Reaction in Tollen's test
An aldehyde reduces Tollen's reagent:
So, 1 mole of aldehyde produces 4 moles of .
- Molar mass of cyclohexanecarbaldehyde
Cyclohexanecarbaldehyde has structure , i.e. molecular formula:
Its molar mass is:
- Moles of cyclohexanecarbaldehyde
Given mass =
- Moles of formed
Using the stoichiometric ratio:
- Mass of formed
Molar mass of :
So mass is:
Nearest integer:
- Comparison with stored answer
Stored correct answer =
But from standard Tollen's test stoichiometry, the correct value is kg.
So the stored answer appears to be incorrect.
