### Identifying Reaction MechanismsIn this exercise, students are asked to identify several organic reaction mechanisms as SN1, SN2, E1, or E2. Each problem includes a reactant structure, reaction conditions, and space to identify the mechanism type. ---#### Reaction 1- **Reactant:** A cyclic alkyl iodide- **Reagents:** CH₃OK / CH₃OH- **Mechanism Type:** [Space provided for answer]---#### Reaction 2- **Reactant:** Chlorocyclopentane- **Reagents:** CH₃OH / KOH- **Mechanism Type:** [Space provided for answer]---#### Reaction 3- **Reactant:** Bromocyclohexene- **Reagent:** H₂O- **Mechanism Type:** [Space provided for answer]---#### Reaction 4- **Reactant:** 2-Chloro-2-methylbutane- **Reagents:** (CH₃)₃COK / (CH₃)₃COH- **Mechanism Type:** [Space provided for answer]---#### Reaction 5- **Reactant:** 3-buten-1-ol- **Reagent:** H₂SO₄, Δ (heat)- **Mechanism Type:** [Space provided for answer]---### Explanation- **SN1 Reaction:** Involves a two-step substitution mechanism where the leaving group departs before the nucleophile attacks, typically involving tertiary carbons.- **SN2 Reaction:** Involves a one-step substitution mechanism with direct displacement of the leaving group by the nucleophile, usually involving primary carbons.- **E1 Reaction:** A two-step elimination mechanism forming alkenes, generally observed with weak bases and tertiary carbons.- **E2 Reaction:** A one-step elimination mechanism typically using strong bases, leading to the formation of alkenes.Students should analyze each reaction's structural elements and reagent conditions to correctly identify the mechanism types.

C. Nomenclature of molecules with functional groups: Now we can slowly begin to introduce functional groups on the chain. When functional groups are involved in the molecule, there are divided into three groups for naming. As indicated from the chart in Figure 1. When functional groups are involved, heteroatoms get introduced in the chain. Thus, the root compound is chosen to include the functional group; sometimes even when there is a longer chain present. 1. WS-2.8: Provide systematic names for the following compounds. 2. 3. 4. i.
