CHOOSE ALL THAT APPLY



Observe carefully the course of the reaction. Which of the following statements best describe the processes that occur in the reaction? CHOOSE ALL THAT APPLY Tertiary alkyl halides form stable carbocations. The formation of the carbocation is the fastest step. The formation of the double bond is the slowest step. t-Butoxide acts as a base in this reaction. Elimination is favored rather than a substitution reaction.

Explanation / Answer

t-Butoxide acts as a base in this reaction.

Elimination is favored rather than a substitutuion reaction
