Order the following organic reactions by relative rate. That is, select '1' next to the reaction that will have the fastest initial rate, select '2' next to the reaction
that will have the next fastest initial rate, and so on. If two reactions will have very similar initial rates, you can select the same number next to both.
If a reaction will have zero or nearly zero initial rate, don't select a number and check the box in the table instead.
Note: the "Nu" in these reactions means "a generic nucleophile."
