🧠 The "Aha!" Moment
The  mechanism is a two-step process where the leaving group departs first, creating a carbocation intermediate. The stability of this intermediate is the single most important factor. If the carbocation is too unstable to exist, the reaction simply won't follow the  path.

🗺️ The Carbocation Stability Test
Let's look at the intermediate formed by each substrate:
- (a) Benzyl chloride: Forms a Benzyl carbocation (). This is highly stable due to the resonance of the lone emp
