प्रश्न
Assertion: Compounds containing \[\ce{-CHO}\] group are easily oxidised to corresponding carboxylic acids.
Reason: Carboxylic acids can be reduced to alcohols by treatment with \[\ce{LiAlH4}\].
पर्याय
Assertion and reason both are correct and reason is correct explanation of assertion.
Assertion and reason both are wrong statements.
Assertion is correct statement but reason is wrong statement.
Assertion is wrong statement but reason is correct statement.
Assertion and reason both are correct statements but reasson is not correct explanation of assertion.
उत्तर
Assertion and reason both are correct statements but reasson is not correct explanation of assertion.
Explanation:
Due to electron-withdrawing nature of –C = O group, C – H bond in aldehydes is weak and thus can be easily oxidized to the corresponding carboxylic acids even with mild oxidizing agents like Fehling’s solution and Tollens reagents.
