Step-by-step explanation
(A) When bromopropane reacts with alcoholic, the bromine with the alpha H (hydrogen from the carbon alongside the carbon fortified with useful gathering) is eliminated and subsequently forms propene. 
(B) When Bromo propane reacts with it will form butanenitrile.

(C) When akyl halide reacts with silver nitrite, nitroalkane is formed because the bond between is covalent, the lone pair on nitrogen acts as an attacking site for nucleophilic substitution. 
(D) When bromopropane reacts with silver acetate, propyl ethanoate and silver bromide are formed.
