The correct option is
A A−Q; B−Q; C−R, S; D−P ,SA→Q
B→Q
C→R,S
D→P,S
In (A), the reactant, secondary alkyl halide reacts with alc. KOH. Alcoholic KOH is a strong base, it gives 1, 2
β− elimination product. Thus, it is a E2 elimination reaction.

In (B), the reactant is a benzyl halide derivative. Benyl halide undergoes both
E1 and
E2 elimination reaction. Here,
Ph−CHBr−CH3 reacts faster than
Ph−CHBr−CD3 which means the deuterium is involved in rate determining step. Hence, the given reaction is E2 elimination.

In (D), the reactant is a benzyl halide derivative. Benyl halide undergoes both
E1 and
E2 elimination reaction. Here,
Ph−CH2−CH2Br and
Ph−CD2−CH2Br reacts with same rate which means the deuterium is not involved in rate determining step. Hence, the given reaction is E1 elimination.
