An organic compound X is oxidised by using acidified \[{{K}_{2}}C{{r}_{2}}{{O}_{7}}\]. The product obtain reacts with phenyl hydrazine but does not answer silver mirror test. The possible structure of X is

A)  \[C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}OH\]

B)                  \[C{{H}_{3}}-\underset{O}{\mathop{\underset{||}{\mathop{C}}\,}}\,-C{{H}_{3}}\]

C)                  \[{{(C{{H}_{3}})}_{2}}CHOH\]

D)                  \[C{{H}_{3}}CHO\]
