(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

From the given molecules, more reactive alkyl halide has to be identified.

Concept Introduction:

  • The SN2 reaction is a type of reaction mechanism in which one bond is broken and one bond is formed i.e., in one step. SN2 is a kind of nucleophilic substitution reaction mechanism.
  • Steric effect is the effect due to the groups occupies a certain volume of space.
  • Steric hindrance is caused by the bulky groups at the site of a reaction that makes it difficult for the reactants to approach each other.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

  • The SN2 reaction is a type of reaction mechanism in which one bond is broken and one bond is formed i.e., in one step. SN2 is a kind of nucleophilic substitution reaction mechanism.
  • Leaving propensity depends on the basicity because weak base are stable bases; the readily bear the electrons. Thus they do not share the electrons.

Don't used hand raiting and don't used Ai solution
Could you explain and label how this was determined for the functional groups? Please highlight the areas and show me as well.
