Select the correct response(s): A carbocation intermediate is formed. The reaction proceeds via SN2 mechanism. The carbocation is planar.

When considering the mechanism of the following reaction, which of the following statements is TRUE? if none are true place none A molecule of water is lost. The mechanism involves an SN2 reaction. A free carbocation is formed. An alkoxide is involved as a nucleophile.
Pleas explain how this process occurs. Identify SN1, SN2, E2, E1, nucleophiles and electrophiles.
Draw the molecule: Under second-order conditions (strong base/nucleophile), SN2 and E2 reactions may occur simultaneously and compete with each other.Show what products might be expected from the reaction of 2-bromo-3-methylbutane (a moderately hindered 2∘∘ alkyl halide) with sodium ethoxide. Do not worry about sterechemistry inther SN2 product for this problem. Don't forget about stereochemistry.
Competing SN and E reactions. Predict whether the following reactions will proceed via substitution (SN1 or SN2), or elimination (E₁ or E₂), or whether the two will compete. Identify the major product.
Which of the following is NOT a correct statement about electrophilic aromatic substitution mechanism? Formation of a carbocation intermediate is the rate-determining step. The carbocation intermediate contains an sp3 hybridized carbon in the ring. The addition product is a frequent minor product. Aromaticity is regained by loss of H+ Benzene functions as nucleophile.
True or false? 2-bromo-2-methylpropane undergoes SN1 rather than SN2 because the nucleophile experiences steric hindrance, and a stable carbocation can be formed. When hydroxide ion reacts with 1-chloropropane the main product is 1-propanol.
Which of the following statements is correct for alkyl halide? a. Alkyl halide will always show SN1 mechanism b. As branching at carbon increases, E1 mechanism is favored as compared to SN1 mechanism c. In unimolecular reaction, increasing the temperature do not favor E1 mechanism d. In most unimolecular reactions of alkyl halide, E1 reaction is favoured over SN1 reaction. e. None of the above is correct
