Hello students, in this question we have to identify whether each alcohol is primary, secondary or tertiary.
00:07
Now let us first understand that what is a primary alcohol.
00:11
So if my oh functional group is connected to a carbon and this carbon is connected to again one carbon, then this is known as a primary alcohol.
00:23
This is known as primary.
00:29
What is secondary alcohol? if my oh is connected to a carbon and this carbon is connected to a carbon, connected to two different carbons than this is known as a secondary alcohol and i hope you understood that you can guess what is the tertiary alcohol that if this carbon is connected to three different carbons then it is a tertiary alcohol so i hope it is clear that what is the primary secondary and tertiary alcohol now let's go with the first example first part of the question or we can see the first figure so let me call it figure number a.
01:18
So we have something like this.
01:30
So as we can see, this carbon which is connected to the oh functional group is connected to three different carbons.
01:37
So it will be a tertiary alcohol.
01:46
Tertiary or we also call it three degree alcohol.
01:49
Three degree alcohol.
01:56
Now let's move to the b part of this question.
02:01
We have a diagram something like this.
02:09
One oh functional group here and one oh functional group here and and one oh functional group here.
02:17
So in this, we can see that this is a carbon...
