(a)
Interpretation: The change in the rate of an E2 reaction is to be stated when the concentration of
Concept introduction: E2 type of reaction follows second order kinetics in which the rate depends on both the reactants. The rate law equation for E2 reaction is expressed as,
(b)
Interpretation: The change in the rate of an E2 reaction is to be stated when the concentration of base is halved.
Concept introduction: E2 type of reaction follows second order kinetics in which the rate depends on both the reactants. The rate law equation for E2 reaction is expressed as,
(c)
Interpretation: The change in the rate of an E2 reaction is to be stated when the solvent is changed from
Concept introduction: E2 reactions are usually preferred in
(d)
Interpretation: The change in the rate of an E2 reaction is to be stated when the leaving is changed from
Concept introduction: A leaving group bigger in size is preferred as it leaves easily and fast while a smaller leaving group leaves with difficulty and slow.
(e)
Interpretation: The change in the rate of an E2 reaction is to be stated when the base is changed from
Concept introduction: Strong base is more efficient in proton abstraction and hence, it is more preferred in E2 type of reactions.
(f)
Interpretation: The change in the rate of an E2 reaction is to be stated when the the alkyl halide is changed from
Concept introduction: The rate of E2 reaction depends on the halide being used. A halide in which carbon attached to the leaving group has more number of alkyl groups is usually preferred.

- Consider the reaction of NaCN with 1-bromohexane in DMSO. Predict the change in rate of reaction if the concentration of the NaCN is tripled. A) The reaction rate stays the same B) The reaction rate doubles C) The reaction rate is halved D) The reaction rate quadruples E) The reaction rate triplesarrow_forwardThe reaction of 1-bromobutane with sodium hydroxide affords the substitution product butan-1-ol. What would happen to the rate of the reaction if the concentration of both 1-bromobutane and sodium hydroxide were doubled? The rate increases by a factor of 4. The rate decreases by a factor of 2. The rate remains the same. The rate increases by a factor of 2.arrow_forwardOH OH ∞∞ BF3 Et₂O This reaction takes place via a pinacol rerrangement.
