Solution

The correct option is C (CH3)2=CH2 via E2
In Tertiary Alkyl Halides E2 reactions are favored over SN2 reactions. The greater the alkyl substitution, the faster the reaction, since in the Transiton stage, a double bond is formed partially. A greater substituted alkene is lower in energy. Hence the activating energy is reduced, making the reaction faster.
