Chapter 24, Problem 24.23P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The product that is formed when the given alcohol is oxidized by dilute HNO3 is to be predicted.

Concept introduction:

Oxidation is a type of reaction in which addition of oxygen atom or removal of hydrogen atom takes place. It occurs by loss of electrons. The substance which gets reduced in a reaction is called the oxidizing agent. Oxidizing agent is the substance that causes oxidation in redox reaction. The carbonyls get oxidized to give carboxylic acids. The alcohols convert into carbonyls or carboxylic acids which depend on the effect of the oxidizing agents.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The product that is formed when the alcohol, HOCH2CH2CH2CH2OH is oxidized by dilute HNO3 is to be predicted.
