Answer to Question 2

The reaction proceeds in a single step:
Concerted nucleophilic attack on the electrophilic carbon atom with departure of bromide anion as the leaving group.



Answer to Question 3

The reaction proceeds in three steps:
1. Dissociation by cleavage of the carbon-chlorine bond to afford a tertiary carbocation
2. Nucleophilic addition of water to the carbocation
3. Deprotonation of oxygen
