Answer:
Second step
(CH3)3C+ (aq) + OH^-(aq) ------->(CH3)3COH(aq)
Explanation:
This reaction involves;
First the ionization of the tertiary halide to firm a carbocation
Secondly the attack of the hydroxide ion on the carbocation to form tert-butanol
First step;
(CH3)3CBr (aq) → (CH3)3C+ (aq) + Br- (aq)
Second step
(CH3)3C+ (aq) + OH^-(aq) ------->(CH3)3COH(aq)
This second step completes the reaction mechanism.
Unless you're able to provide a diagram representing the problem, there's not much I can do so solve this problem.

Hello there!
The statement that Acid strength in a series of H-A molecules increases with increasing size of A is True.
When only the size is involved, increasing the size will increase the Acid strength because as size increases, the H-A bond will become weaker as the atoms will be farther apart. Acid strength is related to the ability to release H⁺ ions and a weaker H-A bond will release H⁺ more easily.
Have a nice day!
