Identify $A$ and $B$ in the following reaction:
$C_2H_5Cl \xrightarrow{A} C_2H_5OH \xleftarrow{B} C_2H_5Cl$

Write a note on nucleophilic substitution reactions.

The major product obtained in the following reaction is $C_2H_5ONa + (CH_3)_3C-Cl \rightarrow$

Consider the following reaction and select the best choice that represents the product:

The mechanism of $S_{N}1$ reaction is given as:
$R-X$ $\rightarrow R^{\oplus} X^{\ominus}$ $\rightarrow R^{\oplus} | X^{\ominus}$ $\xrightarrow{Y^{\ominus}} R-Y + X^{\ominus}$
(Ion pair) (Solvent separated ion pair)
$A$ student writes general characteristics based on the given mechanism as:
$(a)$ The reaction is favoured by weak nucleophiles
$(b)$ $R^{\oplus}$ would be easily formed if the substituents are bulky
$(c)$ The reaction is accompanied by racemization
$(d)$ The reaction is favoured by non-polar solvents.
Which observations are correct?
