The rate of SN2 reaction of the type Nu- RX -> R-Nu X- can be increased Select one: a. using a solvent of high polarity b. using tertiary substrate c. using weak nucleophile d. using higher concentration of the nucleophile

using higher concentration of the nucleophile

Explanation:

In SN2 reaction, the attack of the nucleophile on the substrate occurs simultaneously as the leaving group departs. The entering group normally attacks through the back side of the molecule. The reaction is concerted and bimolecular. This implies that the concentration of the nucleophile is important in the rate equation for the reaction. Hence increasing the concentration of the nucleophile will increase the rate of SN2 reaction.
