Question
Under identical conditions, the $S_N1$ reaction will occur most efficiently with$:$

Answer

$S_{N}1$ reaction is most effective in $3^\circ$ carbon.The order goes as
Tert $>$ secondary $>$ primary $>$ methyl
$\ce{(CH_3​)_3​−C−Cl}$ tert$−$butyl chloride$(3^\circ )$
$\ce{CH_3​CH_2​CH_2​CH_2​Cl​ 1−}$chlorobutane$(1^\circ )$
$\ce{Cl−CH_{2​}−CH(CH_3​)−CH_3}$
$\ce{CH_3CH_{2​}CH(Cl)CH_3 2−}$chlorobutane$(2^\circ )$
