Question

Exaplain sn1 mechanism with energy profile diagram?

Answer 1

Answer:

Energy diagram of SN1 mechanism

Because SN1 is a multiple-step reaction, so the diagram has multiple curves, with each step can be represented by one curve. Out of the three steps, the activation energy for step 1 is the highest, therefore step 1 is the slowest step, that is the rate-determining step.
