Concept Introduction:
Oxidation and Reduction: The several organic molecules oxidation is a process by which a carbon atom gains to more electronegative elements most commonly oxygen, the reduction process by which a carbon atom gains bonds to less electronegative elements.
The alcohol molecule can be oxidized to aldehyde (or) ketones, while carbonyl compound (alcohol, ketone) can be reduced to an alcohols, it is called
