💡 Solution & Explanation

Correct option: \(\text{A}\). Preparation methods are selected by the target hydrocarbon: elimination forms alkenes/alkynes, reduction gives more saturated products, and coupling reactions build larger carbon skeletons. Recovered question text: 38. In the elimination of reaction,s that is, in the formation of alkenes, the reactivity of halogens in alkyl halides is in the order – (A) I > Br > Cl (B) Cl > Br > I (C) Br > Cl > I (D) None
