The order of reactivities of methyl halides in the formation of Grignard reagent is :
AnswerClick to flip back
A
$CH _3I> CH _3Br> CH _3Cl$
💡 Explanation:
Grignard reagents are highly reactive and react with any source of a proton to give hydrocarbons. Water, alcohol, amines are sufficiently acidic to convert them to corresponding hydrocarbons. Halide reactivity increases in the order $Cl < Br < I$
Therefore A is the correct option.
