Why does the leaving group rarely act as a base in SN1 reactions? The ABC step is exothermic and highly favorable. O The intermediates do not need to be deprotonated during the reaction beacuse they are all stable. Good leaving groups are strong acid derivatives and weak bases. O It is too strong of a base to exist in solution.

2. Water is heated to a boiling point temperature 100°C. It is then removed from the burner and kept in a room of 30°C temperature. Assuming that there is no change in the temperature of the room and the temperature of the hot water is 90° C after 3 minutes, (a) Find the temperature of water after 6 minutes, (b) Find the duration in which water will cool down to the room temperature to the nearest half degree.
