Answer:

Iodide> Bromide > chloride > flouride

Explanation:

During a nucleophilic substitution reaction, a nucleophilie replaces another in a molecule.

This process may occur via an ionic mechanism (SN1) or via a concerted mechanism (SN2).

In either case, the ease of departure of the leaving group is determined by the nature of the C-X bond. The stronger the C-X bond, the worse the leaving group will be in nucleophilic substitution. The order of strength of C-X bond is F>Cl>Br>I.

Hence, iodine displays the weakest C-X bond strength and it is thus, a very good leaving group in nucleophillic substitution while fluorine displays a very high C-X bond strength hence it is a bad leaving group in nucleophilic substitution.

Therefore, the ease of the use of halide ions as leaving groups follows the trend; Iodide> Bromide > chloride > flouride

Why is it important to compare the positive and negative test results with those of known compounds?
maks197457 [2]

It is important to compare the positive and negative test results with those of known compounds as positive results indicate the presence of that known compound and negative results indicate the absence of that compound which is used for reference.

<h3>What is qualitative analysis?</h3>

Qualitative chemical analysis is a method to determine the chemical composition of a sample.

There are two types of qualitative analysis:

  • Organic Qualitative analysis: It helps in determining the chemical bonds and functional groups in a sample
  • Inorganic qualitative analysis: It helps in determining the ions in the given sample

There are seven ways to analyze a sample qualitatively, which are

  • Change in color
  • Flame test
  • Distillation
  • Extraction
  • Precipitation
  • Chromatography
  • Spectroscopy

A reference compound is always used to which results are compared.

A Positive result indicates that the reference compound is present in the sample whereas a negative result indicates that the reference compound is absent in the given sample.
