Answer:

For SN1 reactions, the step determining the rate is unimolecular, whereas for a SN2 reaction, it is bimolecular. SN1 is a two-step mechanism, whereas SN2 is only a one-step process. During SN1 reactions, the carbocation will form as an intermediate, whereas, during SN2 reactions, it is not formed.

SN1 Reaction

  • The rate of reaction is unimolecular.

  • It is a two step mechanism

  • Carbocation is formed as an intermediate part of the reaction.

  • There is no partial bond formed with the carbon during this reaction.

  • There are many steps in this reaction which start with the removal of the group while attacking the nucleophile.

SN2 Reaction

  • The rate of reaction is bimolecular

  • It is only a one step mechanism

  • No carbocation is formed during the reaction.

  • Carbon forms a partial bond with the nucleophile and the leaving group.

  • The process takes place in only one cycle, with a single intermediate stage
