What was the test or tests that made you decide if you compound was an aldehyde or a ketone and why?

Tollen's test or silver mirror test is use to distinguish between ketone and aldehyde.

Explanation:

Tollen's test is use to distinguish aldehyde from ketone because Tollen reagent consist of silver nitrate and ammonia and it oxidized aldehydes to carboxylic acid and the silver Ag+ is reduced to solid silver Ag. It form a inner film wall on the tube that look like mirror. Ketone do not react with Tollen reagent and therefore does not form silver mirror on the tube wall.

pure water does not conduct electricity very well. however, when certain substances are dissolved in water, the solution does conduct electricity. you can make a simple device that shows how well a solution conducts electricity. this device uses a flashlight bulb to indicate how well the solution conducts electricity. the better the solution conducts electricity, the brighter the bulb will glow.
