C4H9OH is the substrate, Br- is the nucleophile and H2O is the leaving group.

In an SN1 reaction, the rate limiting step is the formation of the carbocation. The carbocation is formed as water which is the leaving group departs. After the leaving group departs, the nucleophile (Br-) attacks to yield the major organic product. The protonation of the -OH group is the first step in the reaction.

It then follows that, C4H9OH is the substrate, Br- is the nucleophile and H2O is the leaving group.
