Correct option: D.
$\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
  {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
  {\,\,\,\,\,\,C{H_3}} \\ 
  | 
\end{array}} \\ 
  {C{H_3} - C - C{H_3}} \\

Alkyl halide is  $1^o$

Keep in mind $1^o$ halide give product by ${S_{{N^2}}}$/ $E‌‌‌_2$  mechanism and $ 1^o$  halide always gives substitution reaction except when strongly hindered base is used.

ex.: With $\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
  {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
  {\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,C{H_3}} \\ 
  {\,\,\,\,|} 
\end{array}\,\,\,\,\,\,} \\ 
  {C{H_3} - C - O\,( - )} \\ 
  {\,\,\,|\,\,\,\,\,\,} \\ 
  {\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,C{H_3}\,\,\,\,\,\,} 
\end{array}$ it gives mainly elimination.

The reaction involves carbocation intermediate.

i.e. $\mathop {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
  {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
  {\,\,\,C{H_3}} \\ 
  {|\,} 
\end{array}} \\ 
  {C{H_3} - C - \mathop C\limits^ \oplus  {H_3}} \\ 
  {|\,} \\ 
  {H\,} 
\end{array}}\limits_{\left( {primary{\text{ }}carbocation} \right)} $

but as it is a primary carbocation it will rearrange to give a tertiary carbocation, which completes the reaction

$\mathop {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
  {\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
  {\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,C{H_3}} \\ 
  \,\,\,\,\,\,\,| 
\end{array}} \\ 
  {C{H_3} - {C^ \oplus }} \\ 
  {\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,|} \\ 
  {\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,C{H_3}} 
\end{array}}\limits_{teritiary{\text{ }}carbocation} $

Stability of carbocation : $3^o > 2^o > 1^o > $ $\mathop C\limits^ \oplus {H_3}$

It is because the stability of a charged system is increased by dispersal of the charge. The more stable the carbocation, the faster it is formed.

$N.B.$ -Rearrangement can be done in two ways.

$\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
  {\,\,C{H_3}} \\ 
  {\,\,|\,\,\,\,} \\ 
  {C{H_3} - C - \mathop {{\text{ }}C}\limits^ \oplus  {H_2}} \\
