Question

with the help of energy profile diagram explain the mechanism of alkaline hydrolysis of bromoethane​

Answer 1

Answer:

Alkaline hydrolysis of bromomethane follows bimolecular nucleophilic substitution (SN2)mechanism. The hydrolysis reaction can be written as follows: 1. ... The nucleophile (OH-) slowly approaches the carbon atom from the opposite side of the C - Br bond.
