Explanation:

In chemistry, an oxidizing agent (oxidant, oxidizer) is a substance that has the ability to oxidize other substances — in other words to accept their electrons. Common oxidizing agents are oxygen, hydrogen peroxide and the halogens.

Oxidising agent is the chemical which itself undergoes reduction reaction and forces other to accept electrons or to form bond with oxygen i.e to get oxidised. ... When an oxidising agent is added to propanol then an oxidation reaction takes place and propanoic acid is formed as a product.

Examples of strong oxidising agents are - Alkaline KMnO4 and acidified K2Cr2O7. When an oxidising agent is added to propanol then an oxidation reaction takes place and propanoic acid is formed as a product.
