Because tertiary alcohols have less acidic hydrogens. Because primary alcohols have less electron-donating groups which create more effective charge separation between oxygen and hydrogen atom, making it more acidic. Because primary alcohols are more polar than tertiary alcohols. Because primary alcohols have less electron-donating groups which decrease electron density on oxygen, making it more susceptible for H+ to depart from the structure.arrow_forward
