Identify the correct statement

• A

  Aldehydes on reduction give secondary alcohols
• B

  Ketones on reduction give primary alcohols
• C

  Ketones reduce Fehling's solution and give red cuprous oxide
• Correct answer
  D

  Ketones do not react with alcohols

Solution

Ketones do not react with alcohol. (i) Aldehydes reduction $\longrightarrow 1^{\circ}$ alcohol e.g., $\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{CHO} \longrightarrow \mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{OH}$ (ii)
(iii) Ketones do not reduce Fehling solution but aldehydes do so.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
