a.
To classify:
The given alcoholic structure is primary, secondary or tertiary.
Introduction:
The numbers of alkyl groups attached to the carbon atom which are bonded to the hydroxyl group are classified as alcohols. The reactivity of alcohol is directly affected by the number of alkyl groups attached to the alcoholic carbon. The alcohols are of three types: primary alcohol, secondary alcohol and tertiary alcohol.
