Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The net ionic equations are to be written, and the nucleophile, substrate, and leaving group are to be designated in the given equations.
Concept introduction:
Nucleophilic substitution is a reaction in which an electron-rich group, called a nucleophile, substitutes an outgoing group on a saturated carbon atom. The group that is replaced carries the bonding electron pair with it and is called the leaving group. Nucleophilic substitution reactions are of two types- when the order of the reaction is first order it is represented as Sn1 ands when the order is of second order then represented as Sn2.
Spectator ions are ions that are present on both sides of the equation and neither undergo any change nor are involved in covalent bonding.
A net ionic equation is the ionic equation with no spectator ions.
