Are alcohols more reactive than ethers?

No, ethers are generally less reactive than alcohols. Alcohols have a hydroxyl group (-OH) that can participate in various chemical reactions such as oxidation, dehydration, and nucleophilic substitution. Ethers, on the other hand, lack such a reactive functional group and are generally more inert.


Does ethers contain oxygen?

By definition, ethers must contain at least one oxygen atom.

What is the least reactive element in the group 2 of the periodic table of elements?

The Zinc Family also known as group IIB is the second least reactive I believe. The least reactive family is the one with a full p sublevel, the noble gases, the next least reactive would be the family with a full d sublevel. Since group IIB has a full d sublevel, it must be the next least reactive family.
