Tollen's test is an important test to distinguish between aldehyde and ketone.
$$\ce{2 [Ag(NH3)2]+ + RCHO + H2O → 2 Ag(s) + 4 NH3 + RCO2H + 2 H+}$$
But is this reaction safe? Is there any threat in the formation of silver nitride (fulminating silver)? It is formed when the products of most of the reaction of silver($\ce{I}$) salts are kept aside undisturbed. It act as a potential explosive or a contact explosive. If there is any threat in the formation of silver nitride, what precaution must be taken to prevent it?
