Answer 1

*1111 OH attack Ach chiz A (5)-2- pentanol. (B) (R)-2-chlecopentane. I a miature obviously Here, from starting material we go of enantiomer in the product. So, this an example of SN'type mechanism. Мон Here, as the starting material can produce carbocation, this reaction per underzoer SNI mechanism. Stabe teltta- i Na I - A - Nace () i Here, this also undergor I SNI mechanism due to I very stable tertiary carbocation.
