Step-by-Step Verified Solution

PhSNa replaces F from o- and p-dinitro- fluorobenzene via nucleophilic aromatic substitution.

PhSNa replaces Cl from compound D via nucleophilic bimolecular substitution reaction.

In case of compound B and C, nucleophilic substitution is not possible neither by SNAr or SN2 . because, the electron withdrawing group is present at meta-position and halogen is attached to sp2-carbon.
