**Elimination Reaction of 2-Chloropropane***Introduction*When 2-chloropropane is treated with hydroxide ions (OH⁻) in alcohol, an elimination reaction occurs, resulting in propene as the organic product. The chemical equation for this reaction is shown below. Three different reaction mechanisms (I, II, and III) are provided for analysis.*Question*Which of these is the correct mechanism for the reaction?*Chemical Equation*\[ \text{CH}_3\text{CHClCH}_3 + \text{OH}^- \rightarrow \text{CH}_3\text{CH=CH}_2 + \text{H}_2\text{O} + \text{Cl}^- \]*Diagram Explanation*- **Mechanism I**: - The OH⁻ ion abstracts a hydrogen atom from the carbon adjacent to the chlorine-bearing carbon, creating a double bond after the chlorine leaves. This step is marked as 'slow', indicating it is the rate-determining step. - The product is water and a chloride ion.- **Mechanism II**: - The chlorine leaves first, forming a carbocation. - Next, the OH⁻ ion abstracts a hydrogen from the adjacent carbon, forming a double bond. - **Mechanism III**: - The chlorine leaves first, forming a carbocation. This step is marked as 'slow.' - Simultaneously, the OH⁻ abstracts a hydrogen, forming water and leading to the formation of a double bond.*Options*- A. II- B. III- C. I(Choose the correct mechanism based on the understanding of the elimination process described.)

Elimination reaction is mainly two types ---> E2 and E1 In E2 reaction, C-H bond and C-X (X= halogen) bond will be broken and new C= C bond will be formed. It is a single step mechanism. In case of E1 reaction, the mechanism proceeds through carbocation intermediate formation and the adjacent C-H bond will be collapsed to form new C=C bond.
