Answer:
magnesium chloride (no prefixes)
Answer:
Explanation:
A tertiary alcohol is a compound (an alcohol) in which the carbon atom that has the hydroxyl group (-OH) is also bonded (saturated) to three different carbon atoms.
Based on the question, the only <u>tertiary alcohol that can result from C₆H₁₄O that have a 4-carbon chain</u> is
2-hydroxy-2,3-dimethylbutane
H OH H H

H - C - C - C - C - H

H CH₃ CH₃ H
From the above, we can see that the carbon atom having the hydroxyl group is also bonded to three other carbon atoms. And since we aren't considering stereochemistry, this is the only tertiary alcohol we can have with a 4-carbon chain
