>>7161076Haloalkanes can react with OH- ions in nucleophilic substitution reactions. Under different conditions Hhal is eliminated to form an alkene.
Make a table to show the conditions required for each type of reaction.
What is the role of the hydroxide ion in each type of reaction?
Which type of haloalkane is more likely to undergo substitution or elimination ie primary, secondary or tertiary?
Explain which type of reaction was most likely taking place in your experiment? Give reasons for your choice
The questions are asked in such an autistic and infuriating manner that I can't find anything specific on them, but all the information surrounding the questions is available. I could explain what mechanisms are used by tertiary primary and secondary haloalkanes and why
Like I suppose primary haloalkanes are more likely to undergo the reactions just based on the speed of the mechanism that underpins them, but that's not really answering the question directly so I don't know what the fuck I'm supposed to put
Shit like this is why my brain is filled with ants.
I swear to god I'm going to write a thesis piece on why organic chemistry isn't real
