Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) a-q;b-r;c-p;d-s;

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

A tertiary alkyl halide with strong base undergoes elimination reaction, while a primary alkyl halide with t-butoxide gives ether by a substitution reaction. Alkenes undergo hydration (addition of water) by Hydroboration-Oxidation, giving anti-Markovnikov's products and by Oxymercuration-Demercuration, giving Markovnikov's products.
