Yup, Dono ke (b) are right....
1) 20 alcohols give Ketones on Oxid.n which wud split up into 2 acids on further Oxid.n.
2) Vigorous oxidation of secondary alcohols wud reduce the no. of carbons, n tertiary mein Oxid.n is not very easy ( hota bhi hai toh eliminated product dominates) ,So it is Primary as the no. of carbons remains the same...
