Which of the following statements are correct ?

Options

A. The reaction of t-butyl chloride with `overset (Ө) O H` follows first-order kinetics.
B. An `SN^1` reaction proceeds with the inversion of configuration.
C. An `SN^2` reaction follows second-order kinetics.
D. An `SN^2` reaction proceeds with stereochemical inversion.

Answer

A, C, D

Explanation

The option (b) is wrong. `SN^1` reaction proceeds with racemisation and retention of configuration.
On the other hand, (a), (c), and (d) are self-explanatory.
