Chapter 13, Problem 4CTQ

How might nucleophilic catalysis work?Draw out a possible mechanism.

What are the nucleophiles?

Define " reaction mechanism." Define "nucleophile." What electronic features characterize a nucleophile? Define "electrophile." What electronic features characterize an electrophile?

Define Nucleophile ?

For the reaction below identify the reactant electrophile and the nucleophile.

Label the electrophile and nucleophile in the reaction.

How to Identify Electrophile & Nucleophile and know the difference

Draw the reaction mechanism showing bonds that are broken/formed

What is the effect on the rate constant and reaction rate when reaction temperature is increased?    The rate constant will be greater, and the reaction rate will be higher.                  The rate constant will be smaller, but the reaction rate will be higher.            The rate constant will be smaller, and the reaction rate will be lower.
