उत्तर

+I effect of alkyl groups in alcohols increases the stability of O-H bond.

Explanation:

The alkyl group's electron donating inductive effect (+I effect) either destabilizes the alkoxide ion (alcohol's conjugate base) or enhances the stability of the O-H bond.

As a result, alcohol reactivity diminishes in the following order:

primary alcohol > secondary alcohol > tertiary alcohol.
