Explanation:
Oxidation of alcohols is oxidation in terms of hydrogen transfer. The alcohol is oxidised by loss of hydrogen. Oxidation and reduction in terms of hydrogen transfer is common in hydrocarbon chemistry. Butanol is oxidised by sodium dichromate (Na2Cr2O7) acidified in dilute sulphuric acid to form the aldehyde butanal.
