Students can find the difference between aldehydes and ketones with the help of some chemical reactions. Aldehydes can be distinguished from ketones using tests like Tollens' test and Fehling's test. Aldehydes reduce Tollens' reagent to produce a silver mirror and Fehling's solution to yield a red precipitate, whereas ketones do not react in these tests.
