Which of the following alkyl halides will react fastest with CH3OH in an SN1 mechanism?

Chemistry

yaroslaw [1]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

IV

Explanation:

The complete question is shown in the image attached.

Let us call to mind the fact  that the SN1 mechanism involves the formation of carbocation in the rate determining step. The order of stability of cabocations is; tertiary > secondary > primary > methyl.

Hence, a tertiary alkyl halide is more likely to undergo nucleophilic substitution reaction by SN1 mechanism since it forms a more stable cabocation in the rate determining step.

Structure IV is a tertiary alkyl halide, hence it is more likely to undergo nucleophilic  substitution reaction by SN1 mechanism.

Which of the following is a nonpolar molecule?
mylen [45]

<u>Answer:</u> The correct option is A) a nitrogen molecule.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Polar covalent molecules are defined as chemical compounds in which the difference in electronegativity between the atoms is not equal to 0. These molecules are formed by heteronuclear molecules.

Heteronuclear molecules are defined as the molecules which are formed by the combination of more than one type of atom having a different nucleus.

Non-polar covalent molecules are defined as chemical compounds in which the difference in electronegativity between the atoms is equal to 0. These molecules are formed by homonuclear molecules.

Homonuclear molecules are defined as the molecules which are formed by the combination of one type of atom having the same nucleus.

From the given options:

  • A) A nitrogen molecule

It is a homonuclear molecule formed by the combination of 2 nitrogen atoms

  • B) A nitrogen monoxide molecule

It is a heteronuclear molecule formed by the combination of 1 nitrogen and 1 oxygen atoms

  • C) A linear nitrogen oxide molecule (N_2O) with nitrogen in the center

It is a heteronuclear molecule formed by the combination of 2 nitrogen and 1 oxygen atom and has some dipole moment. Thus, is considered a polar molecule

  • D) A bent nitrogen dioxide molecule (NO_2) with nitrogen in the center

It is a heteronuclear molecule formed by the combination of 1 nitrogen and 2 oxygen atoms and has some dipole moment. Thus, is considered a polar molecule

Hence, the correct option is A) a nitrogen molecule.
