PROBLEMS. 1. Give the half equations for the reduction of Tollens reagent (under basic conditions) to silver. Assume Tollen's reagent is equivalent to [Ag(NH3)2]*. 2. Give the half equation for the oxidation of an aldehyde RCHO to RCOO (under basic conditions). 3. Combine and balance the half equations from a and b to give the full reaction for the oxidation of the aldehyde by Tollens reagent under basic conditions.
