Concept introduction:
Resonance is an idea to explain the bonding in a molecule having delocalized electrons, that results in the formation of many resonance structures that collectively constitute a resonance hybrid.

- The relative rates of reaction of ethane, toluene, and ethylbenzene with bromine atoms have been measured. The most reactive hydrocarbon undergoes hydrogen atom abstraction a million times faster than does the least reactive one. Arrange these hydrocarbons order of decreasing reactivity.arrow_forwardThe hydrolysis of tert-butyl chloride proceeds less rapidly in a solvent mixture which is 15% water/85% acetone than in one which is 85% water/15% acetone. Why? O The reaction proceeds by an SN2 mechanism wherein the rate is increased by increasing the concentration of the nucleophile water. The solvent which contains a greater percentage of water is less polar, and this destabilizes the tert-butyl chloride. O None of the above. O The reaction proceeds by an SN1 mechanism wherein the rate is increased by increasing the concentration of the nucleophile water. O The transition state in the carbocation formation step is better stabilized in the more polar solvent mixture.arrow_forwardFor an SN1 reaction, which of the following is the correct order from the given statements below: (1) The nucleophile attacks both from the front and from the back of the planar carbocation. (II) The nucleophile attacks from a backside position. (II) The halide ion as the leaving group leaves initially. (IV) The halide ion as the leaving group leaves subsequently. (V) The halide ion as the leaving group leaves simultaneously as the nucleophile approaches. (VI) The product is formed. (VII) A stable carbocation is formed. (VIII) A product with inversed chirality is formed. Nu R-C-X + R-C-Nu wharrow_forward
