Answer:
The
reaction of alcohols with cone. HCl and (Lucas
reagent) occurs through intermediate formation of carbocations. Obviously, more
stable the carbocation, more reactive is the alcohol. Since the stability of carbocations
follows the order : 3° > 2° > 1°, therefore, reactivity of alcohols
towards Lucas reagent follows the same order, i.e., 3° > 2° > 1°.
