NEET Chemistry SN1 & SN2 Reactions Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): SN1 reactions are generally carried out in polar protic solvents. | Reason (R): In SN1 reactions, the rate depends on the concentration of the nucleophile.
Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
A is true but R is false.
A is false but R is true.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
