The reactivity of a certain alkyl halide towards SN1 reaction would depend on the stability of the carbocation formed after the leaving group leaves.
The order of reactivity of carbocations is as follows:
Tertiary Carbocations > Secondary Carbocations > Primary Carbocations
Note: Allyl carbocations are more stable than tertiary carbocations.
