Hey mate!!!

➡️Benzylchloride is more reactie than alkylchloride in nucleophilic sunati tution reaction because in case of aryl halides, the halogen is directly attached to sp2 hybridised carbon atom. Due to resonance, carbon-halogen bond acquire partial double bond character and the cleavage of C=X bond becomes difficult, hence Chlorobenzene is less reactive than Benzyl chloride.
