Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

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

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

SN2 reactivity order is inversely proportional to steric hindrance and directly proportional to transition state stabilization. Reactivity: \( \text{(D) Tertiary butyl Chloride (tertiary)} \) - Most sterically hindered, least reactive. \( \(…
