Detailed explanation-1: -Ketone is the first oxidation product of secondary alcohol. For example, butan-2-ol is oxidised to butan-2-one.
Detailed explanation-2: -Butan-2-ol is a secondary alcohol. The complete oxidation of secondary alcohols yields alkanones. The correct product is butanone.
Detailed explanation-3: –Butan-2-ol is converted to butan-2-ol using lithium aluminum hydride which is LiAlH4 it is a reducing agent which is used to reduce ketones to alcohols. Here butan-2-ol is a ketones and butan-2-ol is alcohol.
Detailed explanation-4: -Dehydration of butan-2-ol leads to a mixture containing: but-1-ene. cis-but-2-ene (also known as (Z)-but-2-ene) trans-but-2-ene (also known as (E)-but-2-ene)
Detailed explanation-5: -Secondary alcohol (butan-2-ol) is oxidised to ketone (butan-2-one) by chromic anhyride (CrO3).
