Sn2 reaction - sketching molecular orbitals
The equation can be seen in the picture. I was assuming it was an Sn2 reaction given the polar aprotic solvent and strong nucleophile.
For b), I assumed that the question asked me to draw the orbitals as shown above (as opposed to orbital diagram) because it asked me to identify the HOMO and LUMO.
I'm confused as to where SEt (-) attacks/how to draw the attack i.e. the reaction itself as both steps occur at the same time. Also I'm assuming that the orbital around S is the HOMO and the orbital around C the LUMO. Is that correct?

Using orbitals, draw the transition state of the SN2 reaction between sodium cyanide and bromomethane. Which orbitals are interacting with which? Why is the bond breaking? Why is the orientation important? Is there another angle besides backside attack that could theoretically work based on orbital geometry? Why doesn’t this happen?

For the preparation and standardization of NaOH with KHP im supposed to boil water for 1hr and 30 min to remove CO2....the problem is that if I don't boil it for that long and (30 min) b/c of not enough time but I put the water I boiled for 1/2 hr aproximately into a NaOH bottle with a CO2 absorber and stored it there for a few days. I would assume that I would have to boil the water again...but...
