Vedclass · Accepted Answer

$(i)$ Ethyl alcohol and $(ii)$ no reaction

Vedclass · Answer

(D) $(i)$ Ethyl bromide $(C_2H_5Br)$ undergoes nucleophilic substitution with aqueous $NaOH$ to form ethyl alcohol $(C_2H_5OH)$. $(ii)$ Chlorobenzene $(C_6H_5Cl)$ is highly resistant to nucleophilic substitution under normal conditions due to the partial double bond character of the $C-Cl$ bond. Therefore,it does not react with aqueous $NaOH$ at room temperature.

Reaction of aqueous sodium hydroxide on $(i)$ ethyl bromide and $(ii)$ chlorobenzene gives:
