How does the Hammond postulate explain the difference in selectivity between bromination and chlorination?

• A. Bromination and chlorination both have early transition states, impacting their selectivity equally.
• B. Bromination has a late transition state, making it more selective as it closely resembles the stable product.
• C. The postulate indicates no significant difference in selectivity between these reactions.
• D. Chlorination has an early transition state, making it more selective as it closely resembles the reactants.

Answer: (B)
