what is the outcome of tollens reagent reacting with methanal, ethanol and propanone?

The outcome of the Tollens reagent reacting with methanal (formaldehyde), ethanol (ethyl alcohol), and propanone (acetone) is the formation of metallic silver (Ag) in the case of methanal, while ethanol and propanone do not show a significant reaction with Tollens reagent. Tollens reagent is used as a chemical test to distinguish between aldehydes and ketones, where aldehydes react to produce a silver mirror, while ketones do not react.
