The reaction of tert-butyl bromide with ethanol shown below is termed a solvolysis reaction and gives the products formed. Experiment shows that when the concentration of t-butyl bromide is doubled without changing the amount of ethanol, the rate of reaction doubles. When the concentration of CH3CH3CH2CH3CH3CH2BrOCH2CH3+ HOCH2CH355oC+72%28%+ CH3CH2OH2Br-ionized formof HBr in ethanoltert-butyl ethyl ether2-methylpropene6page 6tert-butyl bromide is held constant and the concentration of ethanol doubled, no change in the reaction rate is observed.(a) (6 pts) Draw a mechanism showing how 2-methylpropene forms that is consistent with the kinetic data presented above. DO NOT COMBINE STEPS IN YOUR MECHANISM.
