Questions and Answers

Which factor primarily affects the reactivity of compounds in SN1 substitution reactions?

  • Stability of the carbocation formed (correct)
  • Presence of double bonds
  • Electronegativity of the atoms
  • Molecular weight of the compounds
  • In decreasing order of reactivity for SN1 substitution, which compound characteristic is likely to enhance reactivity?

  • Weak nucleophiles
  • Primary carbocations
  • Tertiary carbocations (correct)
  • Strong bases
  • What is a common misconception regarding the reactivity of compounds in SN1 reactions?

  • Reactivity is independent of carbocation stability (correct)
  • All compounds react at the same speed
  • Nucleophile strength has no effect on reaction rate
  • Increasing steric hindrance always decreases reactivity
