The product of the oxidation of a primary alcohol is a carboxylic acid.

β 13y agoThe product produced when C5H12O is oxidized depends on the degree of oxidation applied. If fully oxidized to formic acid (HCOOH), the reaction produces 5 moles of carbon dioxide (CO2) and 6 moles of water (H2O).
Benzyl alcohol can be converted to 2-phenylethanoic acid through oxidation using a strong oxidizing agent such as potassium permanganate (KMnO4) in acidic conditions. The benzyl alcohol is oxidized to benzoic acid, which can then be further oxidized to 2-phenylethanoic acid by using a milder oxidizing agent like Jones reagent (chromic acid).
Cyclohexanone can be oxidized to adipic acid.
reducing a carboxylic acid directly forms an aldehyde, but further reduction forms a primary alcohol reducing a ketone forms a secondary alcohol oxidation reverses these processes primary alcohol -> aldehyde -> carboxylic acid secondary alcohol -> ketone
Butan-1-ol, which is a primary alcohol, will be oxidised to butanoic acid. Butan-2-ol, which is a secondary alcohol, will be oxidised to butanone.
Oxidation of a primary alcohol results in an Aldahyde, 2 molecules of primary alcohol oxidized results in an ether, oxidization of a secondary alcohol end product is a ketone. Oxidation of a primary alcohol results in an Aldahyde, 2 molecules of primary alcohol oxidized results in an ether, oxidization of a secondary alcohol end product is a ketone.
ketone
The general equation for the oxidation of a primary alcohol is: Primary alcohol β Aldehyde β Carboxylic Acid During this process, the primary alcohol is first oxidized to an aldehyde, which is further oxidized to a carboxylic acid.
Camphor is a ketone.It is the oxidation product of borneol, which is a secondary alcohol. Primary alcohols when they are oxidized can either produce carboxylic acids or aldehydes. However, since borneol is secondary, it cannot be oxidized to produce an aldehyde or carboxylic acid.Secondary alcohols, on the other hand, will produce ketones. Since borneol is a secondary alcohol, it cannot be oxidized to make an aldehyde which means that camphor must be a ketone.Here is a link to the reaction that I'm talking about:http://img41.imageshack.us/i/primaryohoxidat2.png/Hope that answers your question.
The product of oxidizing a tertiary alcohol is a ketone. Tertiary alcohols cannot be further oxidized to carboxylic acids due to the absence of a hydrogen atom on the carbon atom adjacent to the hydroxyl group.
The product produced when C5H12O is oxidized depends on the degree of oxidation applied. If fully oxidized to formic acid (HCOOH), the reaction produces 5 moles of carbon dioxide (CO2) and 6 moles of water (H2O).
hexanol
The product of ethanol oxidation is acetaldehyde.

Oil is considered a primary product as it is extracted directly from natural resources such as crude oil reserves. Secondary products are derived from primary products through further processing or manufacturing. Oil can be refined into secondary products like gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel.
