Textbook Question
Chapter 9.2, Problem 8P
The observed relative reactivities of primary, secondary, and tertiary alcohols with a hydrogen halide are 3o>2o>1o. If secondary alcohols were to undergo an SN2 reaction rather than an SN1 reaction with a hydrogen halide what would be the relative reactivities of the three classes of alcohols?

Quantum mechanics. In translational motion, the summation is replaced by an integral when evaluating the partition function. This is correct becausea) the spacing of the translational energy levels is very small compared to the product kTb) the spacing of the translational energy levels is comparable to the product kTc) the spacing of the translational energy levels is very large compared to the product kT
