A test tube contains an alcohol which is colorless and clear. When a solution of Na2Cr₂O7 is added to this test tube, the following is observed: How would you interpret this test result? This is a negative dichromate test, which means that the alcohol is NOT an alcohol which can be oxidized. This is a negative dichromate test, which means that the alcohol IS an alcohol which can be oxidized. This is a positive dichromate test, which means that the alcohol is NOT an alcohol which can be oxidized.
