Expert Solution
Step 1

Since among the above reagents , Na2Cr2O7, H2SO4, H2O is a strong oxidising agent

Hence they will oxidise the terminal alcohol or aldehyde into carboxylic acid and secondary alcohol to ketones

And since Ag2O, NH4OH only oxidises aldehydes into the carboxylic acids 

Hence the alcohol will remain as it is in Ag2O, NH4OH case.

Step 2

(a)

The product of the reaction has to be given.
