What type of reaction is the hydrolysis of t butyl chloride?
SN1 reaction
What type of a reaction is 1-bromopropane to propan-1-ol?
SN1 Reaction
What is steric acceleration?
For Sn1 reaction the rate usually increases due to steric acceleration. For example the more methyl groups a compound has i.e the more tertiary it is the faster the rate of reaction will be for an Sn1 reaction.
What is the difference between SN1 and SN2 reactions?
An SN1 reaction is an unimolecular substitution reaction (hence the name SN1). This means it's a substitution reaction in which the rate of the reaction is only dependent on the concentration of the substrate, as opposed to SN2. In an SN1 reaction, the leaving group of the substrate departs first, leaving a carbocation on the substrate. Then, the nucleophile donates an electron pair to the carbocation and forms a bond. In an SN1 reaction, the carbon molecule bonded to the leaving group must therefore be a tertiary substituted carbon. This is because when the leaving group departs from the molecule, only a tertiary substituted carbon is stable enough as a cation. Keep in mind that an SN1 reaction leads to two isomer products. If the tertiary carbon is a chiral senter, the two products of the SN1 reaction have an R and S configuration, respectively. The mixture of these isomers is racemic, and the isomers have identical physical properties.
What happens if we react t-butyl alcohol with HCl and what's the formula?
On heating in a polar solvent as ethanol, SN1 reaction takes place the result is ter-butyl chloride (CH 3)3CCl and water .

Predict the two most likely mechanisms which occur when 2-iodohexane is heated in ethanol?
SN2 and SN1
Why primary alkyl halide are not syntesized using Sn1 reaction?
as order of reactivity of sn1 reaction is 3>2>1 , we do not synthesise primary alkyl halide using sn1 reation. as there is no pushing from other carbon atoms, it is difficult for the X part of RX to separate itself.

Aryl halide do not undergo SN reaction?
Do not undergo SN1 reactions.
What is SNi reaction?
The question is probably intended to be about SN1 reaction. See the following from Wikipedia, accessed Feb. 25, 2013: "The SN1 reaction is a substitution reaction in organic chemistry. "SN" stands for nucleophilic substitution and the "1" represents the fact that the rate-determining step is unimolecular".
What is the difference between an E1 and a Sn1 reaction?
in sn1 reaction the electrophile leaves the substrate forming a carboncation.afterwards the nucleophile while attack the carboncation and usually recimes may be formed in sn1 reaction depending on whether the carboncation experienced a front of backside attack. in sn2 reaction the departing and attacking proccess occurs at the same time. these is pule rampai from the university of johannesburg
What kind of reaction -SN1 or SN2 or E1 or E2- is expected for secondary haloalkanes with sterically hindered strong bases?
the mostly undergo SN1 or E1.. but ratio of E1 is higher...
What is the purpose of the acetic acid in bromination of cholesterol?
The acetic acid provides a polar, protic solvent for the reaction to occur in. This helps to stabilize the carbocation(cholesterol). This speeds up an assists the reaction. For more information you can read the Wikipedia page on SN1 reactions, or do other research on SN1.
