- Compound A reacts with B in the presence of sodium hydride to give C as the majority product.1. Give the detailed mechanism of the formation of C and draw the product C in the box above.2. Draw the energy diagram of the reaction. Indicate with an arrow the rate-determining step of the reaction then draw its transition state3.The rate of the reaction observed is 5 x 10-2 M.s-1 when the concentrations of A and B are 0.2 M and 0.1 M respectively.Determine the rate of the reaction if the concentrations of A and B are now 0.3 M and 0.2 M respectively. Show your calculationarrow_forwardYou determine the bimolecular rate constant k for a set of SN2 reactions. Based on your understanding of how the nucleophile effects the rate constant for an SN2 reaction, drag and drop the nucleophiles into the correct rows in the table below.

- The hydrolysis of tert-butyl chloride proceeds less rapidly in a solvent mixture which is 15% water/85% acetone than in one which is 85% water/15% acetone. Why? O The reaction proceeds by an SN2 mechanism wherein the rate is increased by increasing the concentration of the nucleophile water. The solvent which contains a greater percentage of water is less polar, and this destabilizes the tert-butyl chloride. O None of the above. O The reaction proceeds by an SN1 mechanism wherein the rate is increased by increasing the concentration of the nucleophile water. O The transition state in the carbocation formation step is better stabilized in the more polar solvent mixture.arrow_forward1.
