a.
The rate will be increased nine-fold.
b.
The reaction will be slower because of the more polar solvent.
c.
The reaction will be slower because the leaving group will be poorer.
d.
The reaction will be slower because there will be more steric hindrance.

(A large excess of methylamine has to be used in the second step to minimize the formation of a
tertiary amine and a quarternary ammonium ion.)
c.
Half of the cyclohexene is converted to bromocyclohexane, and half is converted to an alkoxide ion.
The ether is formed from the reaction of bromocyclohexane with the alkoxide ion.

in a less polar solvent. (See Problem 57 on page 442.)
