Solution
The correct option is B tert-Butyl chloride > sec -butyl chloride > n- butyl chloride > CCl4 The reactivity order depends on the stability of carbocation. Tert butyl carbocation has maximum stability. Hence, tert-Butyl chloride has maximum reactivity.
Trichloro methyl carbocation has minimum stability (due to -I effect of chlorine atoms). Hence, carbon tetrachloride has minimum reactivity.
The correct order for the reactivity with alc. silver nitrate is :
