What factors would favor a reaction to be SN1 rather than SN 2?
Why it is critical to keep the temperature of the water bath within (+ or -) ½ degree celcius?
In which of these solvents would the rate constant for an SN 1 reaction be greatest: 50% water?
The factors favoring SN1 reaction over SN2 are listed below:
1. Since the first step of the SN1 reaction is loss of a leaving group to give a carbocation, the rate of the reaction will be proportional to the stability of the carbocation. Carbocation stability increases with increasing substitution of the carbon (tertiary > secondary >> primary) as well as with resonance. So, Benzylic and allylic carbocation will give better reaction.
2. The SN1 tends to proceed with weak nucleophiles – generally neutral compounds such as solvents like CH3OH, H2O, CH3CH2OH etc. As these nucleophiles can not knock out the leaving group according to SN2 route the SN1 pathway is preffered.
3. The SN1 reaction tends to proceed in polar protic solvents such as water, alcohols, and carboxylic acids. These also tend to be the nucleophiles for these reactions as well.
Water bath is in equilibrium with the surrounding can easily transfer a small amount of heat. Hence, it is critical to keep the temperature of the water bath within (+ or -) ½ degree celcius.

What does the word stereoselectivity mean and how does it apply to the catalytic hydrogenation of alkenes? (2 pts) 3. What is the correlation between the heat of hydrogenation of an alkene and its degree of substitution? (2 pts)

What would be the leaving group if 2-Chlorobutane reacts with AgNO3 in an Sn1 reaction? Also What would be the leaving group if 1-Bromobutane reacts with AgNO3 in an Sn1 reaction?
1. Given the following structures that react by Sn1, which would react fastest and which would react slowest. Give reasoning. 5-bromo-1,3-pentadiene, bromocyclopentane, (R)-2-bromo-2-methylhexane. 2.If bromocyclohexane reacts faster than chlorocyclohexane in an Sn2 reaction, what could be the reason? 3.You wish to substitute the bromine in the following molecules with a nucleophile. Explain whether the given molecule would react by Sn1 or Sn2 mechanism and explain why. 1-methyl-1-bromo-cyclohexane, 1-bromopropane, 2-bromohexane. 4. Why does benzyl bromide react under both Sn1 and Sn2...
2-provide structures and names for the by products that may have been formed by E1 and/or E2 processes in your reaction of 2-methyl-2-butanol with hcl.which alkene would you expect to be favored, and why 3- was this an sn1 or an sn2 process and why? 4-why was this reaction carried out at room temperature rather than at elevated temperatures? 5-explain why polar solvent would be expected to increase the rate of this reaction
Just explain why temperature is different at coastal areas rather than inland ignore data 2. If you live near a large body of water (i.e. in Newport Beach), there are often much smaller variations in daytime high and nighttime low temperatures during summer than it is further inland (i.e. Chapman University). Explain why this is the case based on your data and information discussed in this experiment.
What would you expect to see if GTPgS rather than GTP is added in a reaction where dynamin subunits are present in a vesicle budding in vitro reconstitution system? (GTPgS is a non hydrolysable analog of GTP)
