    It is the reaction in which water molecules donates its lone pair of electrons to the antibonding molecular orbital of the group. It is a neucleophilic substitution in which the leaving group is replaced by - OH group in the final stage.

    Explanation:

    Solvoylsis is the ionization of the molecule made by the solvent in this case the solvent is ethanol (CHCH2OH). Hence, in this all the compound from a to f form the most stable cation.

    The compound (CH3) 3C-CL undergo solcolysis rapidly because it will form tertiary carbocation. Chlorobutane undergo solvolysis directly. Then bromocyclohexane undergo solvolysis rapidly since it forms secondary reaction.
