Chapter 9, Problem 9.2P

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

A net ionic equation for the reaction in problem $\text{9}\text{.1a}$ is to be stated.

Concept Introduction:

A nucleophilic substitution reaction is a reaction in which nucleophile donates an electron pair to an electrophile and replaces leaving group. A general nucleophilic substitution reaction is shown below.

${\text{Nu}}^{-}+\text{R}-\text{X}\to \text{R}-\text{Nu}+{\text{X}}^{-}$

A chemical equation that shows the number of species or ions participating in the reaction is known as net ionic equation.
