1. Haloalkanes are compounds in which halogen is bonded to:
Explanation: Haloalkanes contain alkyl halide linkage.
2. Haloarenes are compounds in which halogen is bonded directly to:
Explanation: Aryl halides have halogen attached to an aromatic ring.
3. The C-X bond in haloalkanes is generally:
Explanation: Halogens are more electronegative than carbon.
4. Leaving-group ability among halides generally follows:
Explanation: Weaker C-I bond and better iodide stabilization favor leaving.
5. SN1 reactions proceed through formation of a:
Explanation: The rate-determining step forms a carbocation intermediate.

Explanation: Backside attack and leaving occur simultaneously.
7. Rate of SN1 reaction depends on:
