organic chemistry- Aldol condensation

Aldol condensation reaction
It is kind of nuclephilic addition reaction. aldehyde and ketone undergo this reaction contains alpha hydrogen.
When two aldehyde contains alpha hydrogen reacts it give aldol.
Example- when two mole of ethanal reacts each other in presence of weak base to give 3- hydroxy butanal (aldol) and after heating the reaction it give it release water and give but-2-enal.
When two mole of ketone contains alpha hydrogen reacts it give ketol.
Example- when two mole of acetone(propanone) reacts it give
 4-hydroxy- 4-methy pentan-2-one(ketol).
