(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The products formed from the solvolysis of given compound in ethanol has to be drawn.

Concept Introduction:

Unimolecular nucleophilic substitution reaction in which the reversible ionization of alkyl halide in the presence of aqueous acetone or an aqueous ethyl alcohol provides a carbocation as an intermediate, attacked by the nucleophile to form the product.  If the leaving group in SN1 reaction is attached to the asymmetric carbon, a pair of enantiomers will be formed.  An enantiomer, also known as an optical isomer, is one of two stereoisomers that are mirror images of each other that are non-superimposable.

(b)
