Bonds are forces of attractions between atoms formed by the transfer of electrons or sharing of electrons. Metallic bond is a type bond that exist in metallic structures where the atoms of the metals attracts the sea of electrons in the structure.It is these metallic bonds that results to the malleability , ductility and conductivity of metals because in that the sea of electrons makes them conduct electricity. In addition the atoms of metals in the structure are ions which can slide past each other in the sea of electrons.
What do you mean by this?
This reaction is most likely to fall under SN2 because the
thing called carbonication does not occur in SN1. The carbon forms a partial
bond with the nucleophile during the intermediate phase and the leaving group.
So for this question the reaction will fall under SN2.
