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

A

`HFgtHClgtHBrgtHl`

B

`HClgtHBrgtHFgtHl`

C

`HBrgtHClgtHlgtHF`

D

`HlgtHBrgtHClgtHF`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

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