The SN2 reaction requires three qualities: a strong nucleophile‚ a good‚ unhindered leaving group‚ and a polar‚ aprotic solvent. For our reaction‚ we have all three bases covered. The nucleophile is an alkoxide‚ a deprotonated alcohol. Technically‚ because our alcohol is a phenol‚ the conjugate base is called a phenoxide. Phenol itself has a pKa of about 10‚ but our alcohol has more resonance opportunities‚ so the pKa is down around 8. This is sufficiently acidic for use of weak base like K2CO3 for

Reaction Paper 2 In the 4th chapter of “The Land Looks After Us” Martin starts by talking about a weather doctor that the tribe turned to for guidance after a total eclipse blocked out the sun. Though he was ill he helped and went into a trance which allowed his soul to find out what was going on. What he ended up seeing was a vision of god and all that neat stuff. After he became a prophet‚ I think what martin was trying to address with this story was that religion was not only spreading but

CHARRY DEZZA L. SABANAL BSHRM 4-B REACTION PAPER OF JOSE RIZAL LIFE One note‚ this movie is not for the faint of heart. There are graphic depictions of violence and even torture. The opening few scenes depict some episodes from Rizal’s novels. In one a Catholic priest rapes a Filipina. I guess I now know where the Mestizo mixed blood class came from in the Philippines. In the other scene a Catholic priest beats a child for alleged stealing. Strong stuff and it made me wonder how the

Reaction to James Joyce’s “Araby” James Joyce’s “Araby” is no different than his other works. The story of “Araby” is layered and profoundly complex yet‚ so are his other works. “Araby” is the story of a young boy who lives in Dublin and is completely captivated by a female counterpart. Something that is quite evident all throughout the story is that this boy‚ although captivated by this girl‚ does not once make mention of her name. It seems as if to speak her name would taint his idea of

Nosferatu I rated this film among the ones that I found myself genuinely entertained by. The first thing that stood out about the film was I was able to appreciate it for what it was. I was surprised that I had a genuine reaction of fear to some of the things that were happening on screen. It was done so well in my eyes it made me speculate that perhaps the era of horror films is over and it was only done right in its prime. Everything about the story and the element of creepiness and suspense
