The primary organ involved in metabolizing alcohol is the liver.

The partial oxidation of alcohol means conversion of alcohols to aldehydes
OIL RIG. Oxidation is Loss, Reduction is Gain (of electrons, or of Hydrogen) Oxidation is gain of oxygen, reduction is loss of oxygen. In answer to your question, oxidation of a primary alkanol (alcohol) gives you an alkanal or aldehyde, and what is removed is an atom of H.
The liver is also a vital organ. A vital organ is any organ of the body that, if it's not working properly, you will eventually die from its lack of function. ....as are the lungs....
oxidation of alcohol results in the formation of various carbonyl compounds, depending upon the structure of alcohol. For example, oxidation of secondary alcohol results in the formation of ketone, while that of primary alcohol forms aldehyde and further oxidation forms carboxylic acids.
Oxidation of a primary alcohol results in an Aldahyde, 2 molecules of primary alcohol oxidized results in an ether, oxidization of a secondary alcohol end product is a ketone. Oxidation of a primary alcohol results in an Aldahyde, 2 molecules of primary alcohol oxidized results in an ether, oxidization of a secondary alcohol end product is a ketone.

Damaging a vital organ can have serious consequences, potentially leading to organ failure, disability, or even death. The extent of the damage and the specific organ affected will determine the severity of the outcome. It is crucial to seek immediate medical attention if you suspect you have damaged a vital organ.
The oxidation number of the carbon atom in isopropyl alcohol (C3H8O) is -2, and for the oxygen atom, it is -2. The hydrogen atoms each have an oxidation number of +1.
I think the first organ to be affected by alcohol is your liver.
Yes. Without it, you will die. Therefore it is vital to your survival.
