What is the observation if to differentiate 2-butanone and 2-methylbutanal using Tollen's reagent and KMnO4?

KMnO4 is also known as potassium permanganate. 2-butanone will turn into aldehyde using the two solutions, while the other turns into ketone.

Will CH3CHO react to tollens?
Tollens are chemical reagents that are commonly used to determine whether a known carbonyl containing compound is an aldehyde. It is stated that CH3CHO will not react to tollens at all.
What is the reaction of acetone and tollens reagent?
Tollens' reagent is used to determine whether a carbonyl containing compound is an aldehyde or a ketone. Acetone is a ketone so it will not readily react with Tollens' reagent.
What is the chemical test to differentiate between Ethanal and Propanone?
ethanal and propanone both are carbonyl compounds but ethanal shows reducing properties due to presence of hydrogen on carbonyl group it reduces tollens fehling solution schiffs reagent
Why Tollens reagent does not react with ketone?
because

What is the equation for the reaction between tollens' reagent and butanone?
Does not react. Because Tollens' reagent only works with aldehydes. Butanone is methyl ethyl ketone (MEK).
