Read the passage given below and answer the following questions:Nucleophilic substitution reactions are of two types; substitution nucleophilic bimolecular (SN2) and substitution nucleophilic unimolecular (SN1) depending on molecules taking part in determining the rate of reaction. Reactivity of alkyl halide towards SN1 and SN2 reactions depends on various factors such as steric hindrance, stability of intermediate or transition state and polarity of solvent. SN2 reaction mechanism is favoured mostly by primary alkyl halide then secondary and then tertiary. This order is reversed in case of SN1 reactions.Isopropyl chloride undergoes hydrolysis by

neither SN 1 and SN 2 mechanism

Read the passage given below and answer the following questions:
Nucleophilic substitution reactions are of two types; substitution nucleophilic bimolecular (SN²) and substitution nucleophilic unimolecular (SN¹) depending on molecules taking part in determining the rate of reaction. Reactivity of alkyl halide towards SN¹ and SN² reactions depends on various factors such as steric hindrance, stability of intermediate or transition state and polarity of solvent. SN² reaction mechanism is favoured mostly by primary alkyl halide then secondary and then tertiary. This order is reversed in case of SN¹ reactions.
