(a)
Interpretation:
3-bromocylohexene or bromocyclohexane reacts faster in E2/E1 reaction is to be identified.
Concept Introduction:
An E1 reaction is a two-step reaction in which the
Major product is more stable
An E2 reaction is a concerted, one-step reaction in which the proton is the more stable alkene, unless the reactants are sterically hindered or the leaving group is poor.
(b)
Interpretation:
3-bromocylohexene or bromocyclohexane reacts faster in E2/E1 reaction is to be identified.
Concept Introduction:
An E1 reaction is a two-step reaction in which the alkyl halide dissociates forming a carbocation intermediate. Then a base removes a proton from adjacent carbon to a positively charged carbon.
Major product is more stable alkene.
An E2 reaction is a concerted, one-step reaction in which the proton is the more stable alkene, unless the reactants are sterically hindered or the leaving group is poor.

You are trying to determine the rate law expression for a reaction that you are completing at 25°C. You measure the initial reaction rate and the starting concentrations of the reactions for 4 trials. BrO³¯ (aq) + 5Br¯ (aq) + 6H* (aq) → 3Br₂ (l) + 3H2O (l) Initial rate Trial [BrO3] [H*] [Br] (mol/L) (mol/L) | (mol/L) (mol/L.s) 1 0.10 0.10 0.10 8.0 2 0.20 0.10 0.10 16 3 0.10 0.20 0.10 16 4 0.10 0.10 0.20 32 a. Based on the above data what is the rate law expression? b. Solve for the value of k (make sure to include proper units) 2. The proposed reaction mechanism is as follows: i. ii. BrО¸¯ (aq) + H+ (aq) → HBrO3 (aq) HBrO³ (aq) + H* (aq) → H₂BrO3* (aq) iii. H₂BrO³* (aq) + Br¯ (aq) → Br₂O₂ (aq) + H2O (l) [Fast] [Medium] [Slow] iv.
