Y13
Concept Introduction:
Potassium dichromate is a good oxidizing agent and it has the tendency to oxidize alcohols to aldehydes and aldehydes to carboxylic acids as well. An oxidizing agent is a chemical species which has the tendency to oxidize other to possible higher oxidation states by making them loose electron and thus itself gets reduced.

Interpretation:
The product formed in the reaction of
