Solution

The correct option is B CH3CH=CHCHOCH3CHCHCH2OH:KMnO4
(1) Tollen's reagent refers to the chemical reagent which is used in the detection of an aldehyde functional group, an aromatic aldehyde functional group, or an alpha hydroxy ketone functional group in a given test substance.
Ketones don't give silver mirror with Tollens' reagent.
Tollen's reagent is a solution of silver nitrate (AgNO3) and Ammonia (NH3).
A postive test gives precipitate of elements silver.RCHO+2[Ag(NH3)2]++3OHRCOO + 2Ag + 2H2O+4NH3Aldehyde Tollen's Reagent Carboxylate ion Silver mirror

(2) KMnO4 oxidises aldehyde to carboxylic acid as it is an oxidising agent.

(3) NaBH4 reduces aldehyde to primary alcohol.

(4) H2,Pd/BaSO4 reduces carbonyl chloride to aldehyde.

Hence, the correct answer is option (b).
