Which of the following statements are correct about the mechanism of this reaction ?

Answer»

A carbocation will be formed as an intermediate in the reaction.
`OH^(-)` will attach the substrate (ii) from one side and `Cl^(-)` will leave it simultaneously from other side.
An unstable intermediate will be formed in which `OH^(-)` and `Cl^(-)` will be ATTACHED by weak bonds.
Reaction proceeds through `S_(N)1` mechanism.

Solution :The `2^(@)` ALKYL HALIDE in presence of `OH^(-)` proceeds through `S_(N)1` reaction by FORMATION of carbocation intermediate.
