7. Which of the following statements is TRUE? A) SN2 reactions occur with the same rate regardless of the structure of alkyl halide or substrate B) S2 reactions are concerted with no intermediate C) S 2 reactions proceed with the same rate regardless of the nucleophile used D) S2 reactions are best performed in polar protic solvents E) In an S 2 reaction, loss of the leaving group to give a carbocation is the rate-limiting step 8. Consider the following...
True/False Indicate whether the statement is (A) true or (B) false. In the most stable conformation of a cyclohexane, it is preferable to have as many substituents in the axial position as possible. 2. 3. Syl reactions may involve a carbocation rearrangement. Tertiary alkyl halides are more likely to participate in an Sy2 reaction. 4. Cis-1,3-dimethyleyclohexane and trans-1,3-cyclohexane are enantiomers. 5. 6. An Sy2 reaction results in inversion of the relative configuration. The rate of an SNl reaction can be...

Which of the following statements about the stereochemical outcomes of substitution reactions are TRUE? (check all that are true) The carbocation intermediate in SN1 reactions can be attacked from either side giving a mixture of stereoisomers. SN2 reactions give complete retention of configuration. SN2 reactions give only inversion of stereochemistry SN1 reactions give racemic products or mixtures of diastereomers.

Question 10 3 points Which of the following is FALSE regarding Sn2 reactions? They always occur with the inversion of stereochemistry. They occur in a single, concerted step. Rearrangements can occur due the production of a carbocation intermediate. They are the preferred reaction of primary alkyl halides.
