1. These questions consider carbocation formation in SN1 reactions.
a. Which should be more reactive in an Sn1 reaction, a primary alkyl halide or a secondary alkyl halide?
b. Which reactions that you performed today compare ONLY the reactivity of primary and secondary alkyl halides and not any other effect?
c. What were the reaction times for these reactions?
d. Do the results of these reactions match what you would expect theoretically?
e. In one or two sentences, summarize the results that you have found that compare the reactivity of primary and secondary alkyl halides. Include the specific data that prove your point.
a. A secondary alkyl halide is more reactive.
b. Reactivity: secondary alkyl halide > primary alkyl halide
c. Reaction times: secondary alkyl halide < primary alkyl halide
d. Yes.
e. The secondary carbocation is more stable than the primary carbocation, which is the proof to say that secondary alkyl halide is more reactive than the primary alkyl halide in SN1 reaction.

1. Compare the reactivity of primary alkyl halides in part 1 (SN2) of this experiment to the reactivity of primary alkyl halides today. What conclusions, if any, can you make about the reactivity of these molecules under these different conditions? Use specific data to make your point. 2. Compare the reactivity of secondary alkyl halides in part 1 (SN2) of this experiment to the reactivity of secondary alkyl halides today. What conclusions, if any, can you make about the reactivity...

Experiment F. Nucleophilic Substitution Reactions. Pre -Lab Report 2. SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS: a. Work in groups of 2-3 students. Each group will complete and turn in one report for grade. You will not complete the lab report in your lab notebook using the usual format. Instead, the entire report is provided in the procedures section of these lab materials. You will complete the report by providing the missing information. Report is due at the end of the lab period. b. While...
Nucleophilic Substitution Reactions Lab (SN1 and SN2 reaction mechanisms) Below are my lab results for SN1 and SN2 reactions. This first column of the chart gives the ten starting material halides used in this experiment. The second column gives the reaction time for SN1 mechanisms with silver nitratate in ethanol solution. The third column gives the reaction time for SN2 mechanisms with sodium iodide. In theory, primary alkyl halides are expected to react faster in SN2 mechanisms, and tertiary alkyl...

In this experiment we will study the rates of different alkyl halides in different reactions. There are five alkyl halides selected for this study. Explain the following notation: 1-chlorobutane is a 1° (also called primary) alkyl halide 2-bromobutane is a 2° (secondary) alkyl halide 2-methyl-2-chloropropane is a 3º (tertiary) alkyl halide
