INSTRUCTIONS: Choose from the options A-E and explain briefly by illustrations the chemistry behind each answer.    Preamble: A reaction flask contains a 2-bromopentane in an ethanolic solution of sodium ethoxide at room temperature and results in the formation of two olefinic products. Predict the products that would be formed from such a reaction A. 1-pentene (80%) and 2-pentene (20%) B. 1-pentene (20%) and 2-pentene (80 %) C. 1-pentene (50 %) and 2-pentene (50 %) D. 1-pentene (0 %) and 2-pentene (100 %) E. 1-pentene (100 %) and 2-pentene (0 %) 2. What reaction pathway is followed by the reaction above? A. E1 dehydrohalogenation B. E2 dehydrohalogenation  C. SN1 dehydrohalogenation D. SN2 dehydrohalogenation E. A mixture of E1 and E2 pathways 3. What is responsible for the formation of different products (major and minor). A. The different activated complex involved in the mechanism. B.

Select the correct statements regarding the reactions of tertiary haloalkanes. *         A- Tertiary haloalkanes form alkenes through both the E1 mechanism and the E2 mechanism.         B- Tertiary haloalkanes react with water to form ethers.         C- A tertiary haloalkane always forms a tertiary carbocation as an intermediate when a substitution reaction occurs.         D- A tertiary haloalkane always forms a tertiary carbocation as an intermediate when an elimination reaction occurs.
