The correct order of the solubility of the different alcohols in water is

Answer»

n-propyl alcohol `GT` ethyl alcohol `gt`n-butyl alcohol
Ethyl alcohol `gt` n-butyl alcohol `gt` n-propyl alcohol
n-butyl alcohol `gt` n-propyl alcohol `gt` ethyl alcohol
Ethanol `gt` n-propanol alcohol `gt` ethyl alcohol

Solution :Ethanol `gt` n-propanol `gt` n-butyl alcohol
Solubility of ALCOHOLS in water decreases as the size of alkyl group of alcohols because tendency to FORM hydrogen BONDING decreases.
`underset({:("Isopentyalcohol"),("or 3-methyl butane 2-ol"):})((CH_(3))_(2)underset([D])(CH.CH_(2))CH_(2)OH)`
