How many of the following responses are true?


1. A primary alkyl halide will tend to react through an SN2 mechanism because there is little hindrance to backside attack and a primary carbocation is not very stable
2. 3-bromo-3-methylpentane will undergo substitution through an SN2 mechanism
3. If R-2-bromopentane is allowed to react with OH- the product will be S-2-pentanol
4. SN1 leads to a racemization of sterechemistry due to the nucleophile attacking from the backside and the leaving group leaving
5. SN2 leads to a racemization of sterechemistry due to the nucleophile attacking from the backside and the leaving group leaving

I thought 1, 3, and 4 were right, but my answer was wrong! Please help!

The alkalinity of natural waters is usually controlled by OH- , CO3 2- , and HCO3 - , which may be present alone or in combination. Titrating a 100.0 mL sample to a pH of 8.3 requires 18.70 mL of a 0.0281 M solution of HCl. A second 100.0 mL aliquot requires 48.20 mL of the same titrant to reach a pH of 4.5. Calculate the concentrations of CO3 2- and HCO3 - in ppm.

How long would it take to deposit 500 g of silver metal from a solution containing Ag+ ions using a current of 3.00 amperes? If the same time was spent depositing gold metal from a solution containing Au3+ ions using the same current, how much weight would of gold would be deposited? If you had 23 spoons that you wanted to coat with either silver or gold, and each spoon had a surface area of 150 mm2, how thick a coating could you make with each metal (for the same time spent in the electrolysis bath)? The density of silver is 10.5 g/mL and the density of gold is 19.3 g/mL.
