Which alcohol produces turbidity with Lucas reagent almost immediately at room temperature?
Correct answer C. 2-Methylbutan-2-ol
Explanation
Tertiary alcohols react fastest with Lucas reagent because they form a stable tertiary carbocation. 2-Methylbutan-2-ol is tertiary, so cloudiness appears at once, while secondary alcohols take minutes and primary alcohols barely react.
