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 nd `CL^(-)` will leave it simultaneously from the other side.
An unstable intermediate will be formed in which `OH^(-) and Cl^(-)` ions will be attached by weak bonds.
Reaction proceeds through `S_(N^(1))` MECHANISM.

Solution :(a,d) are both correct statements. A carbocation intermediate is formed and the reaction proceeds by `S_(N^(1))` mechanism.
