Solution The correct option is D 1∘ alkyl halides generally react through SN1 reaction. (2) Rate of SN1 reaction∝Stability of carbocationCarbocation stability order: 3o>2o>1o>Methyl (3) Rate of SN1 reaction∝[R−X][Nu]0.Since, the nucleophile is not involved in the RDS.It does not affect the rate of SN1 reaction
(1) Polar protic solvent solvates the halide ion (leaving group) formed due to C−X bond breaking.
∴Polar protic solvents favour SN1 reaction..
Therefore, primary alkyl halides generally do not react through SN1 reaction.
