Question
A proposed mechanism for a reaction is C_4 H_9 Br rightarrow C_4 H_9^+ + Br Slow C_ 4 H_9^+ + H_2 O rightarrow C_4 H_9 OH_2^+ Fast C_4 H_9 OH_2^+ + H_2O rightarrow C_4 H_9 OH^+ H_3 O^+ Fast Write the rate law expected for this mechanism. What is the overall balanced chemical equation for this reaction? What are the intermediates in this reaction? Draw a reaction profile for an endothermic reaction that has 2 intermediates. Label the products, reactants, transition state(s), intermediates, and axes.Explanation / Answer
Rate law:
Rate = k [ C4H9Br ]
Overall Reaction:
C4H9Br + H2O -------------------->C4H9OH + HBr
Intermediates:
C4H9+, Br-, C4H9OH2+
