(ii)   

                                   

In this compound we have two kind of \beta hydrogen. So dehalogenation will give two kind of alkenes, namely 2-Methylbut-2-ene and 2-Methylbut-1-ene.

                    

The major product of this reaction will be 2-Methylbut-2-ene as the number of \alpha - hydrogens attached to double bonded carbon are more in case of this compound.
