it will become more stable there for it is thermodynamycally favorite. so the reactivity is heigher than primary or secondary alcohol. Tertiary alcohols are more reactive because the increased number of alkyl groups increases effect. So, the charge density on carbon atom increases and hence around oxygen atom.
