Match the type of halide given in Column-$(I)$ with the structures in Column-$(II)$.
Column-$(I)$ (Structure)Column-$(II)$ (Type)
$(A)$ $C_6H_5CH_2X$$(i)$ $4^{\circ}$ Benzylic halide
$(B)$ $C_6H_5CH(CH_3)X$$(ii)$ $3^{\circ}$ Benzylic halide
$(C)$ $C_6H_5C(CH_3)_2X$$(iii)$ $2^{\circ}$ Benzylic halide
$(D)$ $C_6H_5X$$(iv)$ $1^{\circ}$ Benzylic halide
$(v)$ Aryl halide

(A-IV, B-III, C-II, D-V) The classification is based on the carbon atom to which the halogen atom is attached:
$(A)$ $C_6H_5CH_2X$: The halogen is attached to a primary carbon atom adjacent to the benzene ring,which is a $1^{\circ}$ benzylic halide $(iv)$.
$(B)$ $C_6H_5CH(CH_3)X$: The halogen is attached to a secondary carbon atom adjacent to the benzene ring,which is a $2^{\circ}$ benzylic halide $(iii)$.
$(C)$ $C_6H_5C(CH_3)_2X$: The halogen is attached to a tertiary carbon atom adjacent to the benzene ring,which is a $3^{\circ}$ benzylic halide $(ii)$.
$(D)$ $C_6H_5X$: The halogen is directly attached to the benzene ring,which is an aryl halide $(v)$.
Therefore,the correct matching is: $(A$ $\rightarrow iv), (B$ $\rightarrow iii), (C$ $\rightarrow ii), (D$ $\rightarrow v)$.
