Read the passage given below and answer the following questions 53-55 

Nucleophiles are electron rich species. Therefore, they attack at that part of the substrate molecule which is electron deficient. The reaction in which a nucleophile replaces already existing nucleophile in a molecule is called nucleophilic substitution reaction. This reaction has been found to proceed by two different mechanisms which are described below: 

In SN2 the incoming nucleophile interacts with alkyl halide causing the carbon-halide bond to break and a new bond is formed between carbon and attacking nucleophile
SN1 occurs in two steps. In step I, the polarised C—Br bond undergoes slow cleavage to produce a carbocation and a bromide ion. The carbocation thus formed is then attacked by nucleophile in step II to complete the substitution reaction.


Q.53: The preferred solvents for SN1 reactions are: 
(a) Polar in nature 
(b) Protic in nature 
(c) Both polar and protic 
(d) Non-polar and non protic

Correct Answer is Option (c)

Eg. Water, alcohol

Polar and protic solvents stabilize the charged carbocation that results from loss of the leaving group.


Q.54: The stereochemistry in SN1 is ______________ while that in SN2 is______________ : 
(a) Racemization, inversion 
(b) Inversion, racemization 
(c) Inversion, retention 
(d) Retention, inversion

Correct Answer is Option (a)

SN2 proceeds with backside attack (inversion) while in SN1 the nucleophile can attack from either side of carbocation (racemization).


Q.55: In SN1, the rate law depends only on: 
(a) Conc. of nucleophile 
(b) Conc. of the substrate 
(c) Conc. of solvent 
(d) All of the above

Correct Answer is Option (b)

The slow step which is the rate determining step involves only the substrate.
