    Answer is: C. propanal.

    1-propanol is primary alcohol. With weak oxidizing agent primary alcohol gives aldehyde and with strong oxidizing agent primary alcohol gives carbonic acid.

    Oxidation of 1-propanol with Na ₂ Cr ₂ O ₇ and sulfuric acid gives propanal and o xidation with chromic acid gives propionic acid.
