MCQ

A compound $X$ with molecular formula ${C_3}{H_8}O$ can be oxidised to a compound $Y$ with the molecular formula ${C_3}{H_6}{O_2}$ $X$ is most likely to be

✓
Primary alcohol
B
Secondary alcohol
C
Aldehyde
D
Ketone

✓

Answer

Correct option: A.

Primary alcohol

a
(a)$\underset{X}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}-C{{H}_{2}}-C{{H}_{2}}-OH}}\,\xrightarrow{\text{Oxidation}}\underset{Y}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}COOH}}\,$
Since on oxidation same no. of carbon atoms are obtained in as therefore alcohol is primary
