Which statement is correct?

A.
Bromoethane reacts with \(\mathrm{NaOH}(\mathrm{aq})\) to form ethene as a major product.
B.
1-chlorobutane reacts more rapidly than 1-bromobutane with \(\mathrm{NaOH}(\mathrm{aq})\) at the same temperature.
C.
Hydrolysis of \(\left(\mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{H}_{5}\right)_{3} \mathrm{CBr}\) occurs mostly by the \(\mathrm{S}_{\mathrm{N}} 2\) mechanism.
D.
The \(\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}_{2}^{+}\)ion is less stable than the \(\left(\mathrm{CH}_{3}\right)_{3} \mathrm{C}^{+}\)ion.

16.1.3.1 classify alcohols as primary, secondary and tertiary alcohols, to include examples with more than one alcohol group
16.1.3.2 state characteristic distinguishing reactions, e.g. mild oxidation with acidified K2Cr2O7, colour change from orange to green
