Q
Q: Which of the following is a characteristic of an SN2 reaction?
Solution:
SN2 reactions are bimolecular, meaning the rate depends on the concentration of both the substrate and the nucleophile.
Steps: 5
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand what SN2 means. SN2 stands for 'Substitution Nucleophilic Bimolecular'.
Step 2: Recognize that 'bimolecular' means that two molecules are involved in the reaction.
Step 3: Identify the two molecules: the substrate (the molecule being attacked) and the nucleophile (the attacking molecule).
Step 4: Know that the rate of an SN2 reaction depends on the concentration of both the substrate and the nucleophile.
Step 5: Conclude that a characteristic of an SN2 reaction is that its rate is affected by both reactants.
