Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) (A), (B), (C), (D)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( \text{Reactivity in } \mathrm{S_N1} \text{ reaction depends on the leaving group ability.} \) \( \text{Leaving group ability order: } \mathrm{I^- > Br^- > Cl^- > F^-} \) \( \therefore \text{Reactivity order: (A) > (B) > (C) > (D)} \)
