So the critical concept to understand here in looking at the strength of a nucleophile in a protic or a protic solution is where the atom is positioned on a periodic table.
00:10
So in product solutions, the strength of a nucleophile is going to be increased with a larger size.
00:16
So iodine is going to be a better nucleophile than bromine, which is better than chlorine, which is better than fluorine.
00:21
However, in an a prudic solution, we're going to see the exact opposite.
00:24
We're going to see fluorine at the top and iodine at the bottom.
00:27
So using this knowledge, we're going to tackle these problems.
00:29
So in our first one, we have a bromine versus chlorine in a product solution.
00:32
So we're going to look for the bigger one.
00:34
Now it's going to be chlorine...
