A primary alcohol on oxidation gives an……………..which on further oxidation gives a……………….containing the same number of carbon atoms.

Primary, secondary and tertiary alcohols on oxidation either give an aldehyde or a ketone which on further oxidation give carboxylic acid with the ul("same number of carbon atoms in all the cases.")

Establish the structure of a hydrocarbon C_5 H_(10) from the following facts : (i) The hydrocarbon yields 2-methyl butane on catalytic reduction. (ii) The hydrocarbon adds HBr to form a compound (B) which on reaction with moist silver oxide produces an alcohol (C). (iii) The alcohol (C) on oxidation gives a ketone containing the same number of carbon atoms.

2.2 g of an alcohol (A) when treated with CH_3 -Mgl liberates 560 mL of CH_4 at STP. Alcohol (A) on dehydration followed by ozonolysis gives ketone (B) along with (C). Oxime of ketone (B) contains 19.17% N. (A) on oxidation gives ketone (D) having same number of carbon atom. Molecular mass of (A) is
