View answer and explanation

Correct option: C

{\mathrm{S}_\mathrm{N}}1

and

{S_N}2

mechanisms

Option A (

{\mathrm{S}_\mathrm{N}}1

mechanism) is correct because isopropyl chloride, being a secondary alkyl halide, can undergo hydrolysis via both

S_N1

and

S_N2

mechanisms, with

S_N1

being more favored due to the formation of a relatively stable secondary carbocation.
