Explanation / Answer

Question 4: Reaction G is the faster Sn2 reaction is correct

Explanation: SN2 reaction is faster with primary alkyl halide. reaction G involves primary alkyl halide and reaction H invovles secondary alkyl halide. so reaction G involving primary alkyl halides is the faster SN2 reaction.

Question 5: Reaction J is faster Sn2 reaction.

Explanation: At high temperature, E2 elimination reaction is favoured. so reaction J involving low temperature is faster Sn2 reaction.

Question 6: Reaction L is the faster Sn2 reaction.

Explanation: SN2 reaction is faster with sterically less hindered alkyl halides.

Reaction L involves sterically less hindered alkyl halide so it is more reactive in SN2 reaction.
