Allyl chloride is hydrolysed more readily than n-propyl chloride. Why ?

Explanation

Allyl chloride readily undergoes ionization to form resonance stabilised carbocation. Since carbocations are reactive species, allyl cation readily combines with `OH^(-)` ions to form allyl alcohol.

However, n. propyl chloride does not undergo ionization to form n-propyl carbocation and hence it gets hydrolysed less readily than allyl chloride.
