QUESTION #52 Chemical Reactions of Aldehydes and Ketones
The unsaturated ether on acidic hydrolysis produces carbonyl compounds as shown below:- CH _ 3 - CH = CH - O - CH = CH _ 2 H _ 3 O ^ (+) CH _ 3 - CH _ 2 - CH = O and O = CH - CH _ 3 Based on this, predict the solution / reagent that will help to distinguish "P" and "Q" obtained in the following reaction. {{IMG1}}

QUESTION #64 Chemical Reactions
Given below are two statements : Statement I : Cross aldol condensation between two different aldehydes will always produce four different products. Statement II : When semicarbazide reacts with a mixture of benzaldehyde and acetophenone under optimum pH, it forms a condensation product with acetophenone only. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :
