(i) The major product of the given reaction is 2-methylprop-1-ene. It is because sodium ethoxide is a strong nucleophile as well as a strong base. Thus elimination reaction predominates over substitution.
(ii) `CH_(3)-overset(CH_(3))overset("| ")underset(CH_(3))underset("| ")(C )-overset(-)overset(..)underset(..)(O)overset(+)(N)a+CH_(3)CH_(2)Cl rarr CH_(3)-overset(CH_(3))overset("| ")underset(CH_(3))underset("| ")(C )-OC_(2)H_(5)`
