26
Q

Simple distillation process can help estimate what data?

A

Boiling point

27
Q

Define azeotrope.

A

A liquid mixture that has a constant boiling point and whose vapor has the same composition as the liquid.

28
Q

List factors that have a significant effect on the rate of SN2 reactions.

A

Electrophilic carbon that is unhindered, with stronger nucleophiles, a good leaving group.

29
Q

List a factor that doesn’t affect the rate of SN2 and SN1 reactions.

A

Polar-protic solvents

30
Q

List factors that have a significant effect on the rate of SN1 reactions.

A

A good leaving group, resonance-stabilized intermediates, formation of carbocation.

31
Q

Can the structure of the alkyl halide, the leaving group, the nucleophile, and the solvent all play a role on which mechanism occurs under a certain set of conditions and how fast the substitution reaction occurs.

A

Yes.

32
Q

You will use the following for the reaction except _____ in the SN2 reaction lab.
Condenser
Thermometer
Claisen adapter
Stir bar

A

Thermometer

33
Q

You will use the following reagents except _______ in the SN2 reaction lab.

35
Q

The product will be purified by recrystallizing from a ________ mixed solvent in the SN2 reaction lab.

A

Methanol/water

36
Q

True or false? In the SN2 reaction lab, after finishing the addition of mixed solvent to crude sample for recrystallization, cool the mixture slowly to room temperature and watch carefully for evidence whether oil droplets are coming out of solution. If this happens, add a little methanol, warm until everything re-dissolves, then cool slowly again.

A

True.
