The complete combustion of ethanol in oxygen.             

Write a balanced chemical equation for the following process. Structural or displayed formulae should be used for all organic substances.

The reaction of ethanoic acid with ethanol. Name the catalyst used, the type of reaction, and the products.       

Primary and secondary alcohols can be oxidised by heating with a mixture of potassium dichromate(VI) and dilute sulfuric(VI) acid.
■ A primary alcohol can be oxidised to two different products, depending on the conditions used.
■ A secondary alcohol forms one product when oxidised.
■ Tertiary alcohols cannot be oxidised.

Why are tertiary alcohols resistant to oxidation?
