    Correct statements regarding alkyl halides ( R−XR - X ) among the following are : (A) Alcohol being less polar solvent as compared to water, alcoholic KOH favours elimination reaction with R−XR - X. (B) Order of reactivity towards SN1S_{N}1 mechanism is C6H5−CH2−Cl>C6H5−CHCl−C6H5C_{6}H_{5} - {CH}_{2} - Cl > C_{6}H_{5} - CHCl - C_{6}H_{5}. (C) Non substituted aryl halides exhibit properties similar to alkyl halides. (D) Vinyl chloride is an example of haloalkene and allyl chloride is an example of haloalkyne. (E) R−ClR - Cl can be prepared by reacting R−OHR - OH with SOCl2{SOCl}_{2} but Ar−ClAr - Cl cannot be prepared by reacting Ar−OHAr - OH with SOCl2{SOCl}_{2}.
