In SN2 reactions, the correct order of reactivity for the following compounds: CH3Cl, CH3CH2Cl, (CH3)2CHCl and (CH3)3CCl is
(a) (CH3)2CHCl > CH3CH2Cl > CH3Cl > (CH3)3CCl
(b) CH3Cl > (CH3)2CHCl > CH3CH2Cl > (CH3)3CCl
(c) CH3Cl > CH3CH2Cl > (CH3)2CHCl > (CH3)3CCl
(d) CH3CH2Cl > CH3Cl > (CH3)2CHCl > (CH3)3CCl

Answer ::

Reactivity in SN2 is inversely proportional to steric hindrance.
Hence the correct order of reactivity is CH3Cl > CH3CH2Cl > (CH3)2CHCl > (CH3)3CCl
Hence option (c) is the answer.
