Does linux provide any tools to provide the information like man which will give me the details about the c keywords? For. e.g. man auto

2Nope. You can use: http://en.cppreference.com/w/c/keyword or other similar resources. Any textbook will give you the same info. – P.P Jan 09 '17 at 10:21

You cannot do it directly. As P.P. pointed out in the comments you can check out the doc on the cppreference website.
However you can install cpp man on your machine, which will allow you to consult these reference pages as a man page offline on your computer.
It is quite convenient especially if you have to work without a network connexion for a while (e.g. in the plane or train).
