(III) Treatment with pyridinium chlorochromate
The pyridinium chlorochromate is a complex of chromium trioxide with pyridine. This reagent is preferred for mild oxidation to form aldehydes and hence the oxidation to carboxylic acid is prevented.
Primary alcohols are oxidized to form aldehyde, whereas secondary and tertiary alcohols are oxidized to form ketones. The conversion of a hydroxyl group to aldehyde can be done by the removal of hydrogen atoms (Oxidation), looking at the following options; pyridinium chlorochromate and potassium dichromate are both oxidizing a

(III) 3° > 2° > 1°
Alcohols are classified as primary, secondary and tertiary by lucas reagent which is a mixture of concentrated HCl and dry anhydrous ZnCl2. The carbocation is formed as the intermediate during the lucas test of alcohol.More the stability of intermediate carbocation, more will be the reactivity of alcohol.
Tertiary carbocation is most stable then the secondary alcohol is stable due to hyperconjugation and the primary alcohol is the least stable.
Stability of intermediate carbocation:

This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Increasing order of acidity is: ethanol < water < phenol.
This is because the phenoxide ion obtained after the removal of H+ is resonance stabilised, while the ethoxide ion obtained after the removal of H+ is destabilised by +1 effect of ethyl group. Thus phenol is a stronger acid than ethanol.
Now, ethanol is a weaker acid than water because the electron releasing ethyl group increases the ethanol density on oxygen and consequently the proton will not be released easily. There is no such effect is water.

This can be explained as under:
(i) In phenol, the conjugation of unshared electron pairs over oxygen with aromatic ring results in partial double bond character in C – O bond.

In methanol, no such conjugation (resonance) is possible.
(ii) In phenol, oxygen is attached to sp2 hybridised carbon while in methanol, oxygen attached to sp2 hybridised carbon. An sp2 hybridised carbon is more electronegative (because of greater 5-character) than sp3 hybridised carbon atom. Therefore, the bond between oxygen and sp2 hybridised carbon is more stable than the bond between o
