Answer:

Because of electron withdrawing group

Explanation:

In t-butyl alcohol the OH group is attached to a single C - and the other carbon chain in side which withdraws the electron from C-section attached to OH which makes the releasing of OH easy but..

in case of N-butyl all the carbon chains are attched to each other which makes more strong bond and hence donot let the OH group to move so it becomes difficult for n. butyl to release OH
