Indicate which of the ff. statements regarding nucleophilicity is incorrect. 1. F- is more nucleophilic, hence, more reactive towards methyl iodide than Cl-. 2. Second-row elements are more nucleophilic than first-row elements of comparable basicity. 3. Nucleophilicity is the affinity of a nucleophile to an electrophilic carbon. 4. The rate of SN2 reaction may be markedly affected by the nucleophilicity of the attacking atom
