The effect of temperature on the reaction rate: As the temperature increases it provides more kinetic energy to the molecules allowing them to move faster and with more energy the molecules can overcome the activation energy barrier and therefore the reaction occurs faster. 5. Since the proposed mechanism is a SN1 reaction the reaction got faster as the polarity increased. This is because SN1 reactions work best with polar protic solvents as they stabilize the carbocation. Therefore‚ as seen

Synthesis of 1- Bromobutane An SN2 Reaction Theory: One of the methods of preparing alkyl halides is via the nucleophilic substitution reactions of alcohols. Alcohols are inexpensive materials and easy to maintain. However‚ they are a poor leaving group the OH group is a problem in nucleophilic substitution‚ this problem is fixed by converting the alcohol into H2O. Objective: The objective of this lab is to observe the synthesis of 1-bromobutane in an SN2 reaction‚ to see how a primary alky halide

In this experiment‚ the objective is to successfully perform an SN1 reaction to determine the reactivity of tert-butyl chloride‚ through the usage of sodium iodide/silver nitrate reagents and to synthesize tert-butyl chloride. The tert-butyl chloride was synthesized through the use of separation (aqueous and organic layers) and distillation. Tert-butyl chloride is the alkyl halide which is being synthesized throughout the course of the experiment. Alkyl halides are derived from alkanes. Once an alkane

Gebregziabher Discussion and Conclusion: Addition reaction of Alkenes: Bromination of (E)-Stilbene 1. Addition reaction is a reaction that involved two molecules that combine to make a larger product. Addition reaction has two main types‚ electrophilic addition and nucleophilic addition. An electrophilic reaction is when the pi bond of a molecule is removed to make two covalent bonds that are bonded to two new molecules. A nucleophillic addition is a reaction that removed the pi bond from a molecule

Results and Discussion for Kinetic Study of Sn1 Solvolysis The Kinetic Study of Sn1 Solvolysis experiment was performed to find the kinetic rate constant and show how a change in polarity of the solvents can actually affect and determine the kinetic rate constant of a solvolysis reaction. A 50/50 mixture and a 60/40 mixture of water and ethanol was used and NaOH was added drop by drop to form HCl‚ which turned the solution green showing it was changing. This was when the time was recorded. By doing
