Answer»

Correct option (C) 2, 4 dinitrophenylhydrazine

2, 4 dinitrophenylhydrazine is capable of giving test both of Aldehyde and Ketones. As Aldehydes & Ketones both contain the carbonyl group, >C=O, but in aldehydes the carbonyl group is attached to one or two hydrogen atoms whereas in ketones it is linked to two alkyl or aryl groups.
