Fehling's Solution Test: When acetaldehyde is heated with Fehling solution, red ppt. of cuprous oxide are formed. But benzaldehyde does not give red ppt. with fehling solution.
Reaction are
CH3CHO + 2Cu2+ + 5OH-
CH3COO- + Cu2O + 3H2O
C6H5CHO + 2Cu2+ + 5OH-
Arrange the following in decreasing order of their basic strength :
Alkyl amines and ammonia are more basic than aniline because in aniline lone pair on N is in resonace with benzene ring so is less available.
Also more 20 alkyl amines are more basic than primary amine and ammonia due to +I effect of the alkyl group which increases basicity.
