The rate of an S N 2 reaction is second order, as the rate-determining step depends on the nucleophile concentration, [Nu −] as well as the concentration of substrate, [RX]. [1] r = k[RX][Nu −] This is a key difference between the S N 1 and S N 2 mechanisms.
It is also due to this carbocation intermediate that the product does not have to have inversion. The nucleophile can attack from the top or the bottom and therefore create a racemic product. It is important to use a protic solvent, water and alcohols, since an aprotic solvent could attack the intermediate and cause unwanted product.
A metal ion in aqueous solution or aqua ion is a cation, dissolved in water, of chemical formula [M(H 2 O) n] z+.The solvation number, n, determined by a variety of experimental methods is 4 for Li + and Be 2+ and 6 for most elements in periods 3 and 4 of the periodic table.

Sn2 has a bimolcular rate determining step, however this does not mean that Sn2 is always second order. For example the hydrolysis of TBC has Sn2 mechanism but is actually first order- water is of zero order and TBC is of first order so overall, reaction is first order.

The planes are fitted with tanks that skim large bodies of water to "scoop" water up and then drop it on fires from above. A Canadair CL-415 Super Scooper firefighting plane dropping water on a ...
Individuals may have genetic differences that could affect their ability to metabolize caffeine, Routhenstein noted, which means coffee’s effects on heart rate and blood pressure can vary from ...
If the concentration of a sulfuric acid solution is c(H 2 SO 4) = 1 mol/L, then its normality is 2 N. It can also be called a "2 normal" solution. It can also be called a "2 normal" solution. Similarly, for a solution with c (H 3 PO 4 ) = 1 mol/L, the normality is 3 N because phosphoric acid contains 3 acidic H atoms.
