Alkyl halides undergo nucleophilic subst...

Alkyl halides undergo nucleophilic substitution reactions in which halogen atom is replaced by other atom.
`RX + Nu:^(-) to Nu-R + X^(-)`
These reactions follow `S_(N)1` and `S_(N)2` type mechanism, in which `S_(N)1` takes place in two steps while `S_(N)2` takes place in single step. Due to their tendency to undergo substitution by a large number of nucleophiles, they form a variety of products.
Which of the following has highest nucleophilicity?
