Answer:
Tertiary butyl alcohol
Explanation:
Amongst isomeric alcohols, the solubility increases with branching. This is due to the reason that as the branching increases, the surface area of the non-polar hydrocarbon and the solubility increases. So, the sequence of solubility of alcohols are
Tertiary alcohol > secondary alcohol > primary alcohol
