hope this help you

Key Idea: (i) First find the molecular weight of compound. (ii) Only aldehydes give yellow ppt. with alkali. Molecular weight=2× vapour density = 2×29= 58 are The compounds having molecular weight 58 are CH2CH2CHO and CH3COCH3 :: Only aldehydes give yellow ppt. with alkali. CH3CH2CHO is the correct answer
