For the following reactions

JEE Main 2020 (Online) 7th January Evening Slot Chemistry - Haloalkanes and Haloarenes Question 114 English

K_s and K_e, are respectively, the rate constants for substitution and elimination and

\mu = {{{k_s}} \over {{k_e}}}

the correct options is

Accepted Answer

For 1^o alkayl halide rate of substitute reaction is more than rate of elimination reaction.

When Z = A, then k_s

&gt;

k_e and

when Z = B, then k_s

&lt;

k_e

\therefore

\mu

_A

&gt;

\mu

_B

As B is strong base than A so for B more elimination reaction happens.

\therefore

K_e(B)

&gt;

K_e(A)
