Question

I chose the wrong answers so I need the correct ones for the following:

What docs the 1st transition state most resemble? Hint: use the Hammond Postulate the product the second transition state the starting material the intermediate An Snl reaction consists of two steps, where the first step is the rate determining step. Which energy diagram depicts an Snl reaction? A, B, C, What is the solvent in the reaction below? Zn(s) + CuSO4(aq) yields Cu(s) + ZnSO4(aq) CuSO4 ZnSO4 water there is no solvent Zn Cu

Explanation / Answer

(1) The answer is: (D) the intermediate

1st transition state resembles species that is closest in energy with it

=> the the intermediate


(2) The answer is: (A)

2 steps => 2 maxima in energy diagram

First step rate determining => higher activation energy for step 1 => figure A


(3) The answer is: (C) water

Since reaction occurs in aqueos medium (aq) => solvent is water
