Answer:

A. Tertiary alcohol

Explanation:

Secondary alcohols are oxidized to ketones - and that's it. For example, if you heat the secondary alcohol propan-2-ol with sodium or potassium dichromate(VI) solution acidified with dilute Sulphuric acid, you get propanone formed. Playing around with the reaction conditions makes no difference whatsoever to the product.
