Arrange the following alcohols in the increasing order of reactivity with HBr,
`C_(6)H_(5)CH_2OH,C_(6)H_(5)_(2)CHOH, (C_(6)H_(6))_(3)COH, p-Cl C_(6)H_(4)CH_(2)OH, p-NO_(2)C_(6)H_(4)CH_(2)OH`

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To arrange the given alcohols in increasing order of reactivity with HBr, we need to consider the stability of the carbocations formed during the reaction. The more stable the carbocation, the more reactive the alcohol will be. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Alcohols**: - Benzyl alcohol: \( C_6H_5CH_2OH \) - Diphenylmethanol: \( C_6H_5C_6H_5CHOH \) - Triphenylmethanol: \( (C_6H_5)_3COH \) ...
