(A) Methoxy benzene can be prepared by the reaction of `C_6H_5 ONa `and `CH_3 Br` but not by the reaction of `C_6H_5Br` with `CH_3 ONa`
(R) `C_6H_5-Br` is not a good substrate for SN? reaction because attack of nucleophile from back side of leaving group is hindered by the ring and also double bond character will be developed between carbon and bromine
