What is the equation for the rate of formation of 1-iodobutane from the reaction of 1-chlorobutane (BuCl) with NaI by an SN2 mechanism? Rate = k [BuCl] Rate = k [BuCl][NaI] Rate = k [NaI] Rate = k [BuCl]2 Question 20 5 pts What is the equation for the rate of formation of tert-butyl alcohol from the reaction of tert-butyl bromide (t-BuBr) with water by an SN1 mechanism? Rate = k [t-BuBr] Rate = k [t-BuBr][H2O] Rate = k [H2O] Rate = k [t-BuBr]2

The bromination of acetone is acid-catalyzed. CH3COCH3 + Br2 → CH3COCH2Br + H+ + Br- The rate of disappearance of bromine was measured for several different concentrations of acetone, bromine, and H+ ions at a certain temperature. [CH3COCH3] [Br2] [H+] Rate of disappearance of Br2 (M/s) 0.30 0.050 0.050 5.7 x 10^-5 0.30 0.10 0.050 5.7 x 10^-5 0.30 0.050 0.10 1.2 x 10^-4 0.40 0.050 0.20 3.1 x 10^-4 0.40 0.050 0.050 7.6 x 10^-5 (a) What is the rate law for the reaction? (b) Determine the rate constant (k).
