Comprehension Type
Direction (Q. Nos. 18-23) This section contains 2 paragraphs, each describing theory, experiments, data, etc. Six questions related to the paragraphs have been given. Each question has only one correct answer among the four given options (a), (b), (c) and (d).
Passage I
In a SN2 reaction, solvent plays a very important role. Hydroxylic solvents like water, alcohols, carboxylic acids etc., solvate nucleophile, decreases its reactivity in the reaction.
Size of donor atom of nucleophile also affect nucleophilicity. A larger donor atom is more easily polarised and less solvated, hence a stronger nucleophile. Therefore, in a given group of periodic table, nucleophilicity increases down the group. However solvation effect is more predominant than polarisability.
Q.
In water, the order of nucleophilicity of halides is
