Answer:
we can consider moist Ag2O as AgOH, which reacts with RX following SN2 mechanism. Moist Ag2Oreleases OH- in low concentration as AgOH is a weak base. When ethyl bromide is treated withmoist Ag2Oit gives ethyl alcohol as major product. Due to low concentration of OH- the probability of elimination reaction minimizes.
