    The document provides a chemistry exercise involving reactions of aldehydes and ketones. It lists 9 reactions to name the organic products for, including reactions of propanal, propanone, butanal and butanone with reagents like acidified potassium dichromate, NaBH4, HCN, Fehling's solution and Tollen's reagent. It also provides 2 reactions to write equations for and explain the mechanisms, and asks for starting materials to produce 3 specified hydroxynitriles.
