Many organic compounds are prepared by using PCl5 because:
(1) OH group of alcohol is easily replaced by chlorine atom
(2) chlorines are added to the unsaturated compounds
(3) it removes water from organic compounds
(4) phosphorus atoms are entered in the alcohol

In E2 elimination, some compounds follow Hofmann's rule which means:
1. the double bond goes to the most substituted carbon
2. the compound is resistant to elimination
3. no double bond is formed
4. the double bond goes mainly towards the least substituted carbon
The hydrolysis of alkyl halides by aqueous NaOH is best termed as:
(1) electrophilic substitution reaction
(2) electrophilic addition reaction
(3) nucleophilic addition reaction
(4) nucleophilic substitution reaction
SN1 reaction on optically active substrates mainly gives:
1. Retention in configuration
2. Inversion in configuration
3. Racemic product

"The negative part of the addendum adds on the carbon atom joined to the least number of hydrogen atoms." This statement is called as:
(1) Markownikoff's rule
(2) Peroxide effect
(3) Baeyer's strain theory

(3) Methyl anion and Ethylium cation
(4) Methylium and Ethylium cations
Amongst the following which of the above are true for SN2 reaction?
