An example of a secondary alcohol is *
5 points
A. 1,2,- propanediol
B. 3-pentanol
C. 1,2,3-butanetriol
D. 1-hexanol

The answer to your question is the letter B

Explanation:

I will draw the skeletal structures of these compounds to determine which alcohol is secondary.

Secondary alcohol is alcohol in which the hydroxyl group is attached to a secondary alcohol.

Letter A has primary and secondary alcohol so I discard this choice.

Letter B has secondary alcohol, so this is the correct choice.

The letter C has a primary and 2 secondary alcohols so I discard this choice.

I’m not sure what your trying to say here.. can you clarify again?

The activity series is shown in the attached picture. if the element is below the other, then you can displace the other. following the activity series as a guide, the reactions are as follows: nickel and aluminum chloride3 ni + 2 alcl₃  → 3 nicl₂ + 2 albarium and copper bromideba + cubr  →  no reaction because cu is less oxidizable than bapotassium nitrate and aluminum3 kno₃ + al  → al(no₃)₃ + 3 ksodium phosphate and zincnaso₄ + zn  → znso₄ + na
