Vedclass · Answer

(A) The reaction that shows complete inversion of configuration is the $S_N2$ mechanism. $S_N2$ reactions are favored by primary alkyl halides due to minimal steric hindrance. Among the given options,$CH_3Cl$ is a primary halide (methyl chloride) which undergoes $S_N2$ reaction with complete inversion of configuration (Walden inversion). $(CH_3)_3CCl$ is a tertiary halide and prefers $S_N1$ mechanism,while $(CH_3)_2CHCl$ is a secondary halide.
