Answer:
Explanation:
Aldehydes and ketones having at least one α-hydrogen undergo a reaction in the presence of dilute aqueous caustic soda as catalyst to form α-hydroxy aldehydes (aldol). This is known as aldol reaction.

(b) The carbonyl group of acetaldehyde reacts with hydrazine to produce a hydrazone in which the carbon is double bonded to nitrogen.
(c) When acetaldehyde is warmed with freshly prepared ammoniacal silver nitrate solution, a bright silver mirror is produced. The aldehyde gets oxidized to acetate ion and silver ion is reduced to metallic silver.
