Explanation / Answer
1) SN2 reaction
2) Option 1
Reason: A compound in which the carbon is attached to OH group that is linked with 2 other carbons is called secondary alchohol
3) alkoxide with an alkyl halide
4) sodium ethoxide + 2-iodo-2-methylpropane
5) potassium tert-butoxide and ethyl bromide
6) 2-methylpropene, H2SO4 and 1-propanol
