Question

In two separate experiments equal quantities of an alkyl halide, $${C_4}{H_9}Cl,$$  were treated at the same temperature with equal volume of 0.1 molar and 0.2 molar solutions of $$NaOH$$  respectively. In both the experiments, $${t_{\frac{1}{2}}}$$ of the two reactions were the same. The most likely structure of halide is

A. $$C{H_3}C{H_2}C{H_2}C{H_2}Cl$$
B. $$C{H_3}CH\left( {Cl} \right)C{H_2}C{H_3}$$
C. $${\left( {C{H_3}} \right)_2}CHC{H_2}Cl$$
D. $${\left( {C{H_3}} \right)_3}CCl$$  
Answer :   $${\left( {C{H_3}} \right)_3}CCl$$
Solution :
As it is independent of the concentration of $$NaOH.$$   So, it undergoes via $${S_N}1.$$  So, most likely the halide is tertiary halide.

Bottles containing $${C_6}{H_5}I$$  and $${C_6}{H_5}C{H_2}I$$   lost their original labels. They were labelled $$A$$ and $$B$$ for testing. $$A$$ and $$B$$ were separately taken in test tubes and boiled with $$NaOH$$  solution. The end solution in each tube was made acidic with dilute $$HN{O_3}$$  and then some $$AgN{O_3}$$  solution was added. Substance B gave a yellow precipitate. Which one of the following statements is true for this experiment ?
