Application +4 | -1
When the concentration of alkyl halide is triple and concentration of O⊖H\mathop {\text{O}}\limits^\ominus {\text{H}} is reduced to half, the rate of SN2\mathrm{SN}_2 reaction increased by:
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
1.5 times
Option B (1.5 times) is correct because the rate of an SN2SN_2 reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the alkyl halide and the nucleophile. Tripling the alkyl halide concentration increases the rate by a factor of 3, while halving the hydroxide concentration decreases the rate by a factor of 2, resulting in a net increase of 3/2 = 1.5 times.
