Which of the following statements is TRUE?


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.
