Following are the possible isomers of secondary alcohol and ketones for six carbon molecules. In order to distinguish between sec. alcohol and ketone we can simply treat the unknown compound with acidified Potassium Dichromate (VI) in the presence of acid.

This is because ketone can not be further oxidized while, sec. alcohol can be oxidized to ketones as shown below,
