Identify the mechanism of each reaction.
Compare the rates of each reaction.
O Reaction 2 occurs by an E2 mechanism.
O Reaction 2 is faster than reaction 1.
O Reaction 1 occurs by an E2 mechanism.
O Both reactions occur at the same rate.
O Reaction 1 occurs by an El mechanism.
Reaction 1 is faster than reaction 2.
O Reaction 2 occurs by an E1 mechanism.
