The order of rate of hydrolysis of alkyl halides `1^(@),2^(@),3^(@)` and `CH_(3)X` by the `S_(N^(2))` pathway is :

A

`1^@ gt 2^@ gt 3^@ gt CH_3X`

B

`CH_3 X gt 3^@ gt 2^@gt 1^@`

C

`CH_3Xgt 1^@ gt 2^@ gt 3^@ `

D

`3^@ gt 2^@ gt 1^@ gt CH_3X`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Smaller the size of alkyl group faster is rate of `S_N2` reaction .
