Hydrolysis of a gem-dihalide gives $....$.

Product $(A)$ is :

The hydrolysis of optically active $2-$bromobutane with aqueous $NaOH$ results in the formation of:

$A$ bottle containing $C_6H_5I$ and $C_6H_5CH_2I$ has lost its label. To identify them,samples $A$ and $B$ are taken in separate test tubes and boiled with $NaOH$ solution. Finally,the solution in each test tube is acidified with dilute $HNO_3$ and then a few drops of $AgNO_3$ solution are added. Substance $B$ gives a yellow precipitate. Which statement is correct for this process?

State the general reactions of alkyl halides $(RX)$ with different nucleophiles.

What will be the reduction products of the following reactions:
$CHCl_3 \xrightarrow[Zn/HCl \text{ (alc.)}]{+2H}$
$CHCl_3 \xrightarrow[Zn/HCl \text{ (aq.)}]{+4H}$
$CHCl_3 \xrightarrow[Zn/H_2O]{+6H}$
