The alcohol synthesised formed
Concept Introduction:
Oxidation and Reduction: The several organic molecules oxidation is a process by which a carbon atom gains to more electronegative elements most commonly oxygen, the reduction process by which a carbon atom gains bonds to less electronegative elements.
Reduction Reaction: This process in which any substance atoms, ion or molecule gains one or more electrons it is called reduction.
