If a positive test is not immediately observed, the set should be allowed to stand for 1-2 minutes. A positive result means the appearance of a green color.

Aldehydes give a positive test to chromic acid but ketones do not.
Primary and secondary alcohols give a positive test to chromic acid but tertiary alcohols do not.
