The correct order of nucleophilicity is :–(a) Cl– > Br– > I– > OH– > C2H5O–(b) I– > OH– > Br– > Cl– > C2H5O–(c) I– > Br– > Cl– > OH– > C2H5O–(d) C2H5O– > OH– > Cl– > Br– > I–

Answer»

Correct option (d) C2H5O > OH– > Cl > Br > I

Explanation:

Weaker the acid, stronger is the conjugate base and stronger is nucleophilicity. The order of nucleophilicity is C2H5O > OH > Cl > Br > I
