The correct order of reactivity of hydrogen halides with ethyl alcohol is

A

`HFgt HCl gt HBr gt HI`

B

`HCl gt HBr gt HF gt HI`

C

`HBr gt HBr gt HI gt HF`

D

`HI gt HBr gt HCl gt HF`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Among hydrogen halides, as the size of halides ion increases, its reactivity toward ethyl alcohol also increases. Thus, the order of reactivity of hydrogen halide is
HI gt HBr gt HCl gt HF
