Question
Rank the following groups in order of basicity, nucleophilicity, and leaving group ability.
a. Rank the groups from most basic to least.
○ H₂S > H₂O > NH3
H₂S > NH₂> H₂O
O NH₂ > H₂S > H₂O
NH₂ > H₂O > H₁₂S
c. Rank the groups from best leaving group to worst.
O H₂S > NH3 > H₂O
2
H₂S > H₂O > NH3
NH₂ > H₂S > H₂O
○ NH₂> H₂O > H₂S
3
b. Rank the groups from best nucleophile to worst.
○ NH₂> H₂S > H₂O
NH₂> H₂O > H₂S
O H₂S> H₂O > NH₂
○ H₂S > NH3 > H₂O
