A) The slow step in an SN1 mechanism is the dissociation step, which produces a carbanion and a leaving group.
B) In an SN1 mechanism, during the second step the nucleophile attacks the carbocation formed in the first step.
C) Primary alkylhalides are the best substrates for SN1 reactions.
D) The hydroxyl (OH-) group is an excellent leaving group in SN1 reactions.

A) In nucleophilic substitution reactions at a saturated carbon atom, a carbon with a positive charge behaves as a nucleophile.
B) Nucleophilic substitution reactions at a saturated carbon atom can follow one of three mechanisms: SN1, SN2, and SN3.
C) A carbon atom with a partial positive charge can react with a nucleophile, a molecule, or ion that has a lone pair of electrons.
D) Alkanes are an example of saturated organic compounds that easily participate in nucleophilic substitution reactions at a saturated carbon atom.
E) In nucleophilic substitution reactions at a saturated carbon atom, the replaced group is called an electrophile.

A) The nucleophile strongly influences both SN1 and SN2 reactions, while the nature of the nucleophile and the substrate structure are only important in SN2 reactions.
B) The structure of the substrate is the only important factor for SN1 reactions, while the nucleophile, leaving group, and the structure of the substrate are all important for SN2 reactions.
C) For SN2 reactions the only important factor to consider is the leaving group; for SN1 reactions the structure of the substrate and the nature of the nucleophile are the most important factors.
D) The nucleophile and leaving group are both important in SN2 reactions, while for the SN1 reactions the leaving group and the structure of the substrate are very significant.
E) The nucleophile is not important for SN2 reactions, but the structure of the substrate is very important; for SN1 reactions the opposite is true.

A) During the electrophilic aromatic substitutions, the resonance stabilized carbocation reacts with a base to give the addition product.
B) Aromatic compounds are very reactive because they contain more than one C=C double bond in their structure.
C) The rate-determining (slow) step of electrophilic aromatic substitutions is the deprotonation of the carbocation intermediate.
D) Unlike alkenes, aromatic compounds almost always prefer electrophilic substitution over electrophilic addition.
E) During the electrophilic aromatic substitution a Bronsted or Lewis acid is required to generate the nucleophile from an aromatic substrate.
