Consider the conversion of alkyl halide A to ether B. Br CH3OH B OCH3 HBr a. Classify the conversion of A to B as substitution, elimination, or addition. b. The reaction rate depends on the concentration of A only. Write the rate equation for the reaction, and explain why the reaction mechanism must involve more than one step. c. Heterolysis of the polar bond in A forms a resonance-stabilized intermediate. Draw all reasonable resonance structures for this intermediate.
