Write a structural formula for the principal organic product formed in the reaction of methyl bromide with each of the following compounds:

(a) NaOH (sodium hydroxide)

---

(b) KOCH₂CH₃ (potassium ethoxide)

---

(c)

---

(d) LiN₃ (lithium azide)

---

(e) KCN (potassium cyanide)

---

(f) NaSH (sodium hydrogen sulfide)

---

(g) NaI (sodium iodide)

Sample Solution (a) The nucleophile in sodium hydroxide is the negatively charged hydroxide ion. The reaction that occurs is nucleophilic substitution of bromide by hydroxide. The product is methyl alcohol.
